Stinging Snake Blues Songtext
von Memphis Minnie

This house is full of stinging snakes, crawling all in my bed
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
