The Snake

In the style of

Al Wilson

Lyrics

on her way
to work one morning

down the path
along side the lake

a tender hearted woman

saw a poor half frozen snake

his pretty colored skin
had been all frosted

with the dew

oh well she cried i'll take you in

and i'll take care of you

take me in, tender woman
take me in for heaven's sake

take me in, tender woman
sighed the snake

now she wrapped him up
all cozy

in a curvature of silk

and then laid him
by the fireside

with some honey
and some milk

now she hurried home
from work that night

and soon as she arrived

now she found
that pretty snake

she'd taken in
had been revived

take me in, tender woman
take me in for heaven's sake

take me in, tender woman
sighed the snake

now she clutched him
to her bosom

you're so beautiful she cried

but if i hadn't brought you in

by now you might have died

now she stroked
his pretty skin again

and then kissed
and held him tight

but instead
of saying thanks

the snake gave her a vicious bite

take me in, tender woman
take me in for heaven's sake

take me in, tender woman
sighed the snake

i saved you cried the woman
and you've bitten me

even why

and you know your bite
is poisonous and now

i'm gonna die

oh shut up huh, silly woman

said the reptile with a grin

well you knew damn well
i was a snake

before you brought me in

please take me in, tender woman
take me in for heaven's sake

take me in, tender woman
sighed the snake

sighed the snake
take me in, tender woman

sighed the snake
sighed the snake

take me in, tender woman
