Floyd Lyrics - God & Guns - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Floyd was a trapper way back in the holler 

Made moonshine so he could make a dollar 

Six feet tall, dressed in overalls 

And wore himself a long gray beard 

People say Floyd came to town one day 

But two law dogs got in his way 

Floyd never hurt no one in his life 

But they never came back this way 

No, they never came back this way 

And the people say 

Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan 

Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone 

And the creeper was a creepin' and the souls they were hollerin' singin' 

Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye 

The G-men came out to track him down 

But the swamp was too deep, even one of them drowned 

They sent in the hellhounds but they turned around singing 

How how how how how 

And the people say 

Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan 

Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone 

And the creeper was a creepin' and the souls they were hollerin' singin' 

Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye 

Yeah the souls are they were cryin' 

Yeah the creeper he was creepin' 

Sheriff Boudreaux came to talk to his neighbors 

All they could say is he was eaten by a gator 

The legend lives on but Floyd he's at home singing 

How how how how how 

And the soul said 

Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan 

Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone 

Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone 

There's a full moon now 

The moon was shinin' bright singing 

Aye aye aye aye aye
