Danger in the delta.

It aint just gators that you need to be aware of. Other nasties lurk.

Lyrics - Danger in the delta.

Down in the Delta where the river runs deep
Cottonmouths slitherin', victims to reap
They flash that white mouth, ready to strike
One bite from the water moccasin, you won't see the night

Oh, the Delta's full of danger, beware what you find
Alligators snappin' in the muddy brine
Rattlesnakes rattlin', bears in the wood
Bull sharks swimmin' where the river's no good
Dangerous things in the Mississippi mud
Best watch your back in the Delta flood

Timber rattler coiled up under the log
rattle tail warnin', hidden in fog
Black bear roamin' through the cypress trees
Hungry and mean, bring you to your knees

Oh, the Delta's full of danger, beware what you find
Alligators snappin' in the muddy brine
Rattlesnakes rattlin', bears in the wood
Bull sharks swimmin' where the river's no good
Dangerous things in the Mississippi mud
Best watch your back in the Delta flood

Hear the gators bellow in the dead of night
Sharks from the Gulf comin' up for a bite
Wild boars crashin', venom in the air
One wrong step, boy, you won't get nowhere

Wild hogs chargin' with tusks sharp and long
Scorpions stingin' where they don't belong
From the bayou bottom to the river bend
The Delta don't forgive, it'll be your end

Oh, the Delta's full of danger, you better run and hide
Alligators, snakes, and sharks inside
Rattles in the grass, bears on the prowl
Dangerous Delta, hear it howl!
Creatures of the swamp gonna drag you down
In the Mississippi mud, you might just drown

Yeah... watch out down in the Delta...
