[D]Billy and his family went [A]on a holiday
They went down to Florida to [D]laugh and dance and play
[G]Bill went in for a swim, he [D]didn't see the harm
But [A]when he came back out again, [D]he was short an arm
'Cause [D]Rippy the Gator went [A]chomp, chomp, chomp!
Rippy the Gator went [D]chomp, chomp, chomp!
[G]Passing the time by [D]ending children's lives
[A]Down in the bottom of the [D]swamp, swamp, swamp!
[D]Billy and his father went [A]out to play some catch
But Billy missed the pass because his [D]arm was unattached
The [G]ball flew past his shoulder and it [D]rolled into the swamp
When [A]he went wading after it his [D]leg became a stump
'Cause Rippy the Gator went [A]chomp, chomp, chomp!
Rippy the Gator went [D]chomp, chomp, chomp!
[G]Passing the time by [D]ending children's lives
[A]Down in the bottom of the [D]swamp, swamp, swamp!
[D]Billy and his father joined a [A]three-legged race
They were tearing up the field, [D]no one could keep the pace
But [G]Billy tripped and did a flip and [D]landed in the muck
[A]He was running out of limbs and [G]also out of luck
'Cause Rippy the Gator went [A]chomp, chomp, chomp!
Rippy the Gator went [D]chomp, chomp, chomp!
[G]Passing the time by [D]ending children's lives
[A]Down in the bottom of the [D]swamp, swamp, swamp!
[D]Billy was all dirty, he [A]really had to wash
But he couldn't use a towel 'cause his [D]limbs had been gnawed off
[G]He went into the water to [D]get all clean and bright
But [A]when his bath was finished he was [D]only half his height
'Cause Rippy the Gator went [A]chomp, chomp, chomp!
Rippy the Gator went [D]chomp, chomp, chomp!
[G]Passing the time by [D]ending children's lives
[A]Down in the bottom of the [D]swamp, swamp, swamp!
Billy's [D]father rolled his wheelchair [A]up upon a hill
He wanted to put Bill where [D]he would not get killed
But he [G]left him on a slope, and [D]into the swamp he rolled
They [A]dragged out his head but there was [D]nothing left below
'Cause Rippy the Gator went [A]chomp, chomp, chomp!
Rippy the Gator went [D]chomp, chomp, chomp!
[G]Passing the time by [D]ending children's lives
[A]Down in the bottom of the [D]swamp, swamp, swamp!
[G]Passing the time by [D]ending children's lives
[A]Down in the bottom of the [D]swamp, swamp, swamp!
