Crawling King Snake

Crawling King Snake - Big Joe Williams

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 going 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
