Lyrics Spiders And Snakes - The Bellamy Brothers

Spiders And Snakes

I remember when Mary Lou
Said, «you want to walk me home from school?»
Well, I said, «yes, I do»
She said, «I don’t have to go right home
And I’m the kind that likes to be alone some if you would»
I said, «me, too»
And so we took a stroll
Wound up down by the swimming hole
And she said, «do what you want to 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»
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 want to 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 says, «ain't you cool»
I say, «do you remember when?
And would you like to get together again?»
She says, «I'll see you after school»
I was shy and so for a while
Most of my love was touch and smile
Till 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 want to be loved by you
