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