Snakes Crawl at Night
[Chorus]
All the snakes crawl at night that's what they say
When the sun goes down then the snakes will play
[Verse 1]
Well I watched that car pull right in my driveway
Then I saw a shadow slipping from my house
So I hurried straight and looked into her bedroom
And I found out that it was my loving spouse
[Chorus]
All the snakes crawl at night that's what they say
When the sun goes down then the snakes will play
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
All the snakes crawl at night that's what they say
When the sun goes down then the snakes will play
[Verse 3]
Well 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 is something more I'd like to say
[Chorus]
All the snakes crawl at night that's what they say
When the sun goes down then the snakes will play
[Outro]
When the sun goes down then the sneaks will play
When the sun goes down then the sneaks will play
