Okefenokee Social

One evening I went to a social event In the swamp they call Okefenoke. When I tell what I saw you will probably say That I'm lying, or making a joke. I saw a fox in black tie, with a patch on one eye. He danced with a bear in pink tights. A formal dressed gator was leading the band, In a tune that was lilting and light. I saw a coon in a hat, a tux on a rat, And a frog in a gray, pinstriped suit. But the strangest of all of the things that I saw Was a snake wearing cowboy boots.
