The Little Girl and the Dreadful Snake |
| Our darlin' wandered far away while she was out at play |
| Lost in the woods she couldn’t hear a sound |
| She was our darlin' girl the sweetest thing in all the world |
| We searched for her but she couldn’t be found |
| I heard the screams of our little girl far far away |
| Hurry daddy there’s an awful dreadful snake |
| I ran as fast as I could through the dark and dreary wood |
| But I reached our darlin' girl too late |
| Oh I began to sigh I knew that soon she’d have to die |
| For the snake was warnin' me close by |
| I held her close to my face she said daddy kill that snake |
| It’s gettin' late tell mommy goodbye |
| I heard the screams of our little girl far far away |
| Hurry daddy there’s an awful dreadful snake |
| I ran as fast as I could through the dark and dreary wood |
| But I reached our darlin' girl too late |
| To all parents I must say don’t let your children stray away |
| They need your love to guide them along |
| Oh god I pray we’ll see our darlin' girl some day |
| I can still hear her voice around our home |
| I heard the screams of our little girl far far away |
| Hurry daddy there’s an awful dreadful snake |
| I ran as fast as I could through the dark and dreary wood |
| But I reached our darlin' girl too late |
