Billy Gilman - The Snake Song

He swallered a frog

And hollered yum-yum

He slid down the hillside

And darted his tongue

He entered the garden

On this bright moonlight night

Then he stopped in his tracks,

It was love at first sight

(he said) My skin is black,

And your skin is green

You dwell in a garden,

I live by a stream

Although I'm short and stocky

And you're long and lean

I've got a crush on you

Then he squeezed her tighter

And tighter and tighter

I've got a crush on you

He said I'm a king snake,

And you'll be my queen

With a butler and serpents,

And your own private stream

If you refuse me

It would be such a shame

'Cause I'm so tired of doing

My own fang

Then he squeezed her tighter

To excite her and delight her

Oh I've got a crush on you

(and I'll be back tomorrow)

Next day when he got there,

A two-legged man

Was holding sweet green thing

In his big human hand

A long jet of water shot out of her nose

Ol' king snake had fallen in love with a hose

(he said) My skin is black,

And your skin is green

You dwell in a garden,

I live by a stream

Although you're made of plastic

I think you're fantastic

And I've got a crush on you.

But I don't think it's gonna work out
