Charley Pride "Snakes Crawl At Night" |
(Mel Tillis - Fred Burch) All the snakes crawl at night That's what they say When the sun goes down Then the sneaks will play. I watched that car pull right up into my driveway Saw a shadow slip away from my house So I hurried straight and looked in her room And I found out that it was my loving spouse. All the snakes crawl at night That's what they say When the sun goes down Then the sneaks will play. So I waited in the shadows until morning And the gun I held was trembling in my hand No I did not plan to give them any warning 'Cause the devil on my shoulder had command. All the snakes crawl at night That's what they say When the sun goes down Then the sneaks will play. Oh, the trial in a little while was over And they sentenced me to die right away But before I leave this courtroom please Your Honor There's something more that I would like to say. All the snakes crawl at night That's what they say When the sun goes down Then the sneaks will play. All the snakes crawl at night That's what they say When the sun goes down Then the sneaks will play... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
