D           F           A           C
Floyd was a trapper way back in the holler

D        F        A               C
Made moonshine so he could make a dollar

D        C     F              G
Six feet tall. Dressed in overalls

       Bb             A    G    D
And he wore himself a long gray beard
[Verse 2]
D          F             A        C
People say Floyd came to town one day

    D       F    A          C
But two law dogs got in his way

D           C       F          G
Floyd never hurt no one in his life

         Bb         A    G    D
But they never came back this way

         Bb         A    G    D
No, they never came back this way
And the people say [Chorus]

Aye, aye, aye - Hear the hound dogs moan

A         D              F             D
Aye, aye, aye - Now that Floyd is long gone

        D             F
And the creeper was a creeping

        A               G
And the souls they were hollering singing

Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

The G-men came out to track him down

        D             F         A           C
But the swamp was too deep even one of them drowned

     D           C               F            G
They sent in the hell hounds but they turned around

        Bb        A    G    D
Singing how, how, how, how, how

Bb        A    G    D
How, how, how, how, how
And the creeper says [Chorus]
A         D              F          D

Aye, aye, aye - Now that Floyd is long gone

        D             F
And the creeper was a creeping

        A               G
And the souls they were hollering singing

Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

All they could say is he was eaten by a gator
