Spiders and Snakes

I remember when Mary Lou
Said you wanna walk me home from school and I said
"Yes, I do"
She said, "I don't have to go right home, honey
I would kinda like to be alone same 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 ya wanna do, darling"
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"

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 wanna be loved by you

Well, I think of that girl from time to time
I call her up when I gotta dime I say, "Hello, babe"
She says, "Ain't you cool"
"Do you remember when...
And would you like to get together again?"
She said, "I'll see you after school"

I was shy and so for a while
Most of my love was touch and smile 'til she said
"Ya got to come on over here"
I was nervous as you might guess
Still looking for something to slip down her dress and she said
"We got to make it perfectly clear now"

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 wanna be loved by you

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 wanna be loved by you
