1
On her way to work one morning, down the path along side the lake
2
A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake
3
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
4
"Oh well", she cried, "I'll take you in and I'll take care of you"
5
"Take me in oh tender woman, take me in, for heaven's sake
6
Take me in oh tender woman", sighed the snake
7
She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
8
And then laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk
9
Now she hurried home from work that night as soon as she arrived
10
She found that pretty snake she'd taking in had been revived
11
"Take me in, oh tender woman, take me in, for heaven's sake
12
Take me in oh tender woman", sighed the snake
13
Now she clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful", she cried
14
"But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died"
15
Now she stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight
16
But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite
17
"Take me in, oh tender woman, take me in, for heaven's sake
18
Take me in oh tender woman", sighed the snake
19
"I saved you", cried that woman "And you've bit me even, why?
20
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die"
21
"Oh shut up, silly woman" said the reptile with a grin
22
"You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
23
"Take me in, oh tender woman, take me in, for heaven's sake
24
Take me in oh tender woman", sighed the snake
