Spiders and Snakes

Loretta Lynn · The Very Best of Loretta and Conway [1988]

Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty



I remember when Loretta Lynn said ,

You want to walk me home again

And I said, mhm yes I do.

And she said, Well I don't want to go right home

And I'm the kind that don't want to be alone

If you would I would too.



Ha, ha and so we took a stroll

And wound down by a swimmin' hole

And she said do what you wonna do, I don't care

Mhm, I got silly and I found me a frog

In the water by a holler log

And I said Loretta this frog's for you.



I don't like spiders and snakes

And that ain't what it takes

To love me like I want you to

I don't like spiders and snakes

and that ain't what it takes to love me

Like I wanna be loved by you.

Well, I think of that girl from time to time

And I phone up when I got me dime

And I say, Hello baby, ain't you cool

Ha, ha she said, Do you remember when

And you like to get together again

If you do hey, I see I'm just cool.



Ha, ha Well I am shy and so for awhile

Most of my lovin' was tough and smile

Till she said come on over here, I don't care

Mhm mhm I would never say you might guess

Still lookin' for somethin' but a sneak out of dress

And she said... ha ha ha.



Yeah, I don't like spiders and snakes

And that ain't what it takes

To love me like I want you to

I don't like spiders and snakes

and that ain't what it takes to love me

Like I wanna be loved by you...
