This house is full of stinging snakes, crawling all in my bed
 I can't rest at night from them crawling all under my head

 I got up this morning, one stung me on my leg
 I got up this morning, one stung me on my leg
 I can't sleep at night because they keeps me awake

 Hmmmmmm, wonder where my stinging snake gone?
 Hmmmmmm, wonder where my stinging snake gone?
 I can't see no peace since my stinging snake left me home< BR>
 I got a stinging snake, I love sometimes better than I do myself
 I got a stinging snake, I love sometimes better than I do myself
 If the Lord has to take him, I won't be stung by nobody else

 Hmmmmmm, where's my stinging snake now?
 Hmmmmmm, where's my stinging snake now?
 I believe to my soul, that my stinging snake's trying to put me down
