The Snake - Al Wilson

Written by：OscarBrown Jr

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

She wrapped him up all cozy in a comforter of silk

And laid him by her fireside with some honey and some milk

She hurried home from work that night and soon as she arrived

She found that pretty snake she'd taken to had been revived

Take me in tender woman

Take me in for heaven's sake

Take me in tender woman sighed the snake

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

She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight

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 but why

You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die

Oh shut up silly woman said the reptile with a grin

You knew damn well I was a snake before you took 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
