Lyrics
- 1958 Screamin' Jay Hawkins
- AAH! AAAH!!
- HA HA HA!
- Take the blood out of an alligator, yeah
- Take the left eye of a fish, yeah
- Take the skin off of a frog, yeah
- Yeah, and mix it up in a dish
- Add a cup of grease swamp water
- And then countin' one to nine
- Spit over your left shoulder
- And you got alligator wine
- Alligator wine - YEHE HUH UH
- Your porcupine
- Is gonna make you mine, oh yeah
- Yeah, is gonna make you mine
- It'll make your head bald, babe
- I say it make your toes freeze
- It'll turn your blood into steam - ASHHH!
- It'll make you cough and sneeze
- You gotta scream UHH like an eagle
- You gonna roar like a mountain lion
- When you get finished drinking
- Good old, yeah, alligator wine
- Alligator wine
- Your porcupine
- Is gonna make you mine
- AH HUH HUH
- Meet at the stroke of midnight
- By the swamp down in the wood
- I'm gonna make you love me babe
- Like you never thought you could
- You gonna break my magic potion
- And your blood [...] eye is gonna shine
- You gonna be scared forever
