Swamp Thang (Studio Demo)

Raylene was a black haired honey
A solid 10 from head to toe
Bright eyes and a killer smile
Kinda quiet but good as gold
All the girls were mighty petty
Kinda mean and cold as stones
They called Raylene the swamp thang
But the boyfriends were blowin up the poor girl's phone

Hey all the boys say
Swamp Thing, take my money
I'll pay your way for a real good time
Short trip across Paynes Prairie
I'll have you home by 11:59

Raylene came from old southern money
Only daughter of a rich man's son
He had the name but the habits had him
Till he had nothin left for anyone
But Raylene bout a midnight oh, she was gonna have a full ride
But all the girls were mighty petty
And said the swamp thang had to die

Cause all the boys say
Swamp Thing, take my money
I'll pay your way for a real good time
Short trip across Paynes Prairie
I'll have you home by 11:59

So they made a little plan and they gave Raylene the invite
Said "We got a little something going down on the trail tonight"
And they told everybody "It was just an accident
We were running from a gator and I guess she must have slipped"
And they held their fella's hands thinking that the swamp thing's gone
But every night at 11:59 they won't pick up the phone

Don't wanna hear em say
Swamp Thing, take my money
I'll pay your way for a real good time
Short trip across Paynes Prairie
I'll have you home by 11:59

Swamp Thing, take my money
I'll pay your way for a real good time
Short trip across Paynes Prairie
I'll have you home by 11:59
11:59

Raylene coming for ya honey
Gonna feed em from your head to your toes
Bright eyes and a killer smile
There was a time she was good as gold
