I said "Me pretty Creole girl, my money here's no good And if it weren't for the alligators, I'd sleep out in the wood." "You're welcome here kind stranger, our home is very plain. And we never turn a stanger out, on the banks of Pontchartrain."
"Lakes of Pontchartrain" traditional, arranged by Paul Brady (Irish musician) (frequently done by Bob Dylan 1988-90)
