Lyrics
[Intro]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
Slim the Gator, known far and wide,
Was the fiercest carnivore, with a carnivorous pride.
But one day, fed up with the usual chow,
Decided to flip the script, and go green somehow.
Traded in his steak for some celery sticks,
Swapped out his fish for a leafy mix.
Now he’s crunching on carrots, munching on peas,
Slim the Gator’s got a green thumb, if you please!
[Chorus]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
[Verse 2]
The swamp folk chuckled, “What’s gotten into Slim?
A gator eating greens? That’s a gator’s whim!”
But Slim just winked, with a mischievous grin,
“These veggies ain’t bad, where have they been?”
He found an old plot by the bayou’s bend,
Planted radishes, tomatoes, made veggies his friend.
Now Slim’s got a garden, it’s the talk of the town,
The only gator farmer ever around!
[Chorus]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
[Verse 3]
Then came Old Chomp, the biggest gator around,
Heard the veggie rumors, had to check it out.
He saw Slim with a turnip, said, “What a disgrace!
A gator on greens? That’s out of place!”
But Slim held his ground, offered Chomp a taste,
One bite, and Chomp’s eyes grew big as a lake.
Now Old Chomp’s converted, and the swamp’s in shock,
Gators eating greens, what a culture shock!
[Chorus]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
[Verse 4]
Now Slim’s a legend, with his own show,
“Veggies for Gators, come and grow!”
He’s teaching the critters, big and small,
How to munch on greens and have a ball.
From gator gourmets to possum chefs,
They’re all eating veggies, feeling their best.
So remember the tale of Slim and his greens,
In a world full of meat, he lived his veggie dreams!
[Chorus x2]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
[Chorus]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
[chorus]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
[Banjo Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Oh, Slim the Gator’s gone veggie, who’d have thought?
Eating kale and lettuce, in the swamp he bought.
No more chomping on turtles or frogs,
Just a gator on a health kick, jogging through the bogs.
