Snake In The Bed Lyrics - Welder - Elizabeth Cook

There's a snake in the bed, a snake in the bed 

I dumped out my purse and there's a snake in the bed 

It's little and it wiggles, got a shiny black head 

Couldn't be worse there's a snake in the bed 

My pocketbook was sittin by the slidin glass door 

The one I thought didn't work no more 

I set it side me on the pull-out couch 

The one I'd been sleepin on to get the bugs out 

And Big Mama Thornton was singing along 

With pretty young Elvis and the old hound dog 

Heaven turned to big deceit when something slithered down my leg 

And between my feet 

I can't imagine what the fuss is about 

You'd think he'd have chosen a different route 

I can't shut up the words in my mouth 

They started up north and they're heading down south 

The boy from next door came runnin up 

He was sicker than me so the problem was 

We balled up the sheet snake and everything 

Kicked out the door and gave it a fling
