Big Joe Williams Crawlin' King Snake Lyrics

Yes I'm a crawling king snake : baby I'm going to ??? all
around your door
You had the nerve to tell me : ooo well well she didn't
want me no more

You couldn't see me baby : passing by
Mama be your crawling king snake : till the day I die

I'm going to be your crawling king snake : I'm ???ing all
around your door
You had the nerve to tell me : ooo well well you didn't
want poor Joey no more You couldn't see me baby : now when I was walking by
Might be your crawling king snake : mama if I have to die

I'm going back to Memphis : if I have to walk
I ain't got nobody in Chicago : talk that old baby‑talk

Now I'm going back to St Louis : I'm going to sit right
down
I'm going to throw my poison : on every pretty woman in
town
