On her way to work one morning
Down the path alongside the lake

A tender -hearted woman saw

A poor, half -frozen snake

had been all frosted with the dew

One thing she cried, I'll take you in
E

And I'll take care of you
Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman
E
Am
Beside the snake,
she wrapped him all cozy
in a comforter of silk
And laid him by her fireside
as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake
take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman,
E
Am
Bbm
for silence' sake
She clutched him to her bosom,
you're so beautiful, she cried
Db

But if I hadn't brought you in,
kissed and held him tight
Instead of saying thanks,
F

that snake gave her a vicious bite
Take me in, tender woman,
take me in for heaven's sake

side to side
I'll say goodbye, the woman,
and you've been with me but why
You know your bite is poisonous

and now I'm gonna die
sitting on the rooftop with the wind

You knew damn well I was a snake

before you took me in
Take me in, tender woman,
take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman,

silent snake
