About the song
My stylized rendition of a John Lee Hooker tune. A Blues full of bravado,machismo and double entendre
Lyrics
I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den (x2)
You caught me crawlin mama, the grass was very high
I'm gonna keep on crawlin till the day I die
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den
You caught me crawlin mama, the grass was very low
I'm gonna keep on crawlin, can't tell where I'll go
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den
spoken 'Somebody said play it delta style'
instrumental once around
I'm crawlin' on your window, I'm crawlin' on your door
And if you got what I want I'm crawling on your floor.
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den.
Don't mess with my mate......I'll use her for myself
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake
And I rules my den....
You caught me crawlin mama, the grass was very high
I'm gonna keep on crawlin till the day I die
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den
You caught me crawlin mama, the grass was very low
I'm gonna keep on crawlin, can't tell where I'll go
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den
spoken 'Somebody said play it delta style'
instrumental once around
I'm crawlin' on your window, I'm crawlin' on your door
And if you got what I want I'm crawling on your floor.
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake and I rules my den.
Don't mess with my mate......I'll use her for myself
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake
Cuz I'm a crawlin' king snake
And I rules my den....
