Black water Hattie lived back in the swamp Where the stange green reptiles crawl Snakes hang thinck from the cypress trees Like sausage on a smokhouse wall Where the swamp is alive with a thousand eyes And all of em watchin' you Stay off the track to Hattie's shack in the back of the Black Bayou My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

A great southern type song. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

But I don't know who sang it originally, I can only remember Elvis' version! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
Alan Marron Posts: 726 Joined: 14th Jul 2008 Location: UK	Posted at 15:52 on 27th August 2008 Polk Salad Annie, more correctly Poke Salad Annie was written and performed by Tony Joe White who was also the first to record it (in about 1969 I think, but don't quote me) The difference, as I understand it is thatPol Salad refers to greens which are eaten raw, but Poke (Sallet) refers to greens which are eaten after cooking. Maybe this thread should be transferred to the recipe page. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
