Snakes and Snails
I wanted you to love meHad to know what was on your mindI went to a gypsy womanJust to help this heart of mineShe bent down in a commaShe said, “I know what to doI mixed it up this morningI must have been expecting you”It's made of snakes and snailsAnd puppydog's tailsThings that you don't knowIt's made of old wine, turpentineRat's blood, tastes goodMix it up and then I stir it slowI wanted you to love meHad to hear you say it tooI went to a gypsy womanAnd asked her what to do She gave me some love potionSaid to put it in your teaI saw your face go red and hotThen watch you turn it on meLetras de cancionesIt's made of snakes and snailsAnd puppydog's tailsThings that you don't knowIt's made of old wine, turpentineRat's blood, tastes goodMix it up and then I stir it slowI wanted you to love meSo I did what the gypsy saidWhen I woke up this morningI saw you lying in bedI went back to the gypsy Asked what did she doShe said, “I'm sorry honeybut I have to have my fun too”It's made of snakes and snailsAnd puppydog's tailsThings that you don't knowIt's made of old wine, turpentineRat's blood, tastes goodMix it up and then I stir it slowI wanted you to love me From Letras Mania
