I'm a rattlesnakin' daddy
I rattle everywhere I please
I'm a rattlesnae daddy
I rattle where ever I please
Now, when you hear me rattle
You better get down on your knees, oh Lord

I rattled last night and the night before
Got up this morning, wanted to rattle some more
'Cause I'm a rattlesnake daddy from Tennessee
Now, when you hear me rattle
You better get down on your knees, oh Lord

I rattle down in Georgia
I rattle down in New Orleans
I rattle down in Georgia
I rattle down in New Orleans
Now, when you hear me rattle
You better get down on your knees, oh Lord

When I throw my rattles across my back
Look out baby, you better clear the track
'Cause I'm a rattlesnake daddy from Tennessee
Now, when you hear me rattle
You better get down on your knees, oh Lord
