VERSE 1
I'm a rattlesnak'in daddy
I rattle wherever I please
I'm a rattlesnak'in daddy
Rattle wherever I please
When ya hear me rattle's
Better get down on your knees
VERSE 2
I rattle down in Georgie
I rattle down in New Orleans
Rattle down in Georgie
Rattle down in New Orleans
I'm a rattlesnak'n daddy
I feel so dog-gone mean
VERSE 3
I rattled last night, an' th night before
Woke up this morning
Go'na rattle some more
I'm a rattlesnak'n daddy, from Tennessee
I'm a rattlesnak'n daddy
Better leave me be
