Spiders & Snakes

Jim Stafford

5

I remember when Mary Lou

Said, "You wanna walk me home from school?"

Well, I said, "Yes, I do"She said, "I don′t have to go right home

And I would kinda like to be alone some if you would"

I said, "Me, too" haha

And so we took a stroll

Wound up down by the swimming hole

And she said, "Do what you wannna do"

I got silly and I found a frog

In the water by a hollow log

And I shook it at her

And I said, "This frog's for you"

Haha, and she said

"I don′t like spiders and snakes

And that ain't what it takes to love me

You fool, you fool

I don't like spiders and snakes

And that ain′t what it takes to love me

Like I wanna be loved by you"

Well, I think of that girl from time to time

I call her up when I got a dime

I say, "Hello, baby"

She say, "Ain′t you cool"

Ha, say, "Do you remember when?

And would you like to get together again?"

She said, "I'll see you after school"

I was shy and so for a while

Most of my love was touch and smile

′Til she said, "Come on over here"

I was nervous, as you might guess

Still looking for something to slip down her dress

And she said, "Let's make it perfectly clear"

She said

"I don′t like spiders and snakes

And that ain't what it takes to love me

You fool, you fool

I don′t like spiders and snakes

And that ain't what it takes to love me

Like I wannna be loved by you"
