Spiders And Snakes - The Bellamy Brothers

I remember when Mary Lou

Said, «you want to walk me home from school?»

Well, I said, «yes, I do»

She said, «I don’t have to go right home

And I’m the kind that likes to be alone some if you would»

I said, «me, too»

And so we took a stroll

Wound up down by the swimming hole

And she said, «do what you want to do»

I got silly and I found a frog

In the water by a hollow log

And I shook it at her and I said, «this frog’s for you»

She said

I don’t like spiders and snakes

And that ain’t what it takes to love me

You fool, you fool

I don’t like spiders and snakes

And that ain’t what it takes to love me

Like I want to be loved by you

Well, I think of that girl from time to time

I call her up when I got a dime

I say, «hello, baby»

She says, «ain't you cool»

I say, «do you remember when?

And would you like to get together again?»

She says, «I'll see you after school»

I was shy and so for a while

Most of my love was touch and smile

Till she said, «come on over here»

I was nervous, as you might guess

Still looking for something to slip down her dress

And she said, «let's make it perfectly clear»

She said

I don’t like spiders and snakes

And that ain’t what it takes to love me

You fool, you fool

I don’t like spiders and snakes

And that ain’t what it takes to love me

Like I want to be loved by you
