hold that snake
Singer:ry cooder
like a bull dog loves his bone
called me up on the phone
'cause i hates drinkin' alone
and i had to have a little more
could not get out the door
and there's a big ole snake
that's crawlin' right across the floor
hold that snake till i make it
hold on till your daddy gets there
just grab his head and shake it
tell him be ain't goin' nowhere
but don't let go of that snake
my baby's not afraid to take a chance
drinkin' whiskey starts her thinkin' about romance
i know she's got a few tricks up her sleeve
when she gets hot it's not hard to believe
just what adam said to eve
hold that snake till i make it
hold on till your daddy gets there
just grab his head and shake it
tell him be ain't goin' nowhere
but don't let go of that snake
