A D A
The snakes crawl at night, That's what they say,
E A
When the sun goes down, Then the snakes will play,
I watched that car pull into my driveway,
E
Saw a shadow slip away from my house,
A D
Then I hurried straight and looked in her room,
A E A
And found it was my loving spouse,
A D A
The snakes crawl at night, That's what they say,
E A
When the sun goes down, Then the snakes will play,
So I waited in the shadows until morning,
E
And the gun I held was trembling in my hand,
A D
No, I did not plan to give them any warning,
A E A
For the devil on my shoulder had command,
A D A
The snakes crawl at night, That's what they say,
E A
When the sun goes down, Then the snakes will play,
Oh, the trial in a little while, was over,
E
And they sentenced me to die right away,
A D
But before I leave this courtroom please, your honor,
A E A
There's something more that I would like to say,
A D A
The snakes crawl at night, That's what they say,
E A
When the sun goes down, Then the snakes will play,
