Claim: Amos Moses, a song written and recorded by American country music artist Jerry Reed, tells the story of a one-armed Cajun alligator poacher named Amos Moses, son of "Doc Milsap" and his wife Hannah, but it is not absolutely clear that Amos's father was named "Doc Milsap", as the lyric is difficult to interpret from the recording.
Evidence: "Amos Moses" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Jerry Reed. The song tells the story of a one-armed Cajun alligator poacher named Amos Moses, son of "Doc Milsap" and his wife Hannah, who lived "about 45 minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana." It is not absolutely clear that Amos's father was named "Doc Milsap", as the lyric is difficult to interpret from the recording.
