[00:00:15] On her way to work one morning

[00:00:18] Down the path along side the lake

[00:00:22] A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake

[00:00:28] His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew

[00:00:34] Oh well she cried I'll take you in and I'll take care of you

[00:00:41] Take me in tender woman

[00:00:44] Take me in for heaven's sake

[00:00:47] Take me in tender woman sighed the snake

[00:00:56] She wrapped him up all cozy in a comforter of silk

[00:01:02] And laid him by her fireside with some honey and some milk

[00:01:08] She hurried home from work that night and soon as she arrived

[00:01:15] She found that pretty snake she'd taken to had been revived

[00:01:21] Take me in tender woman

[00:01:24] Take me in for heaven's sake

[00:01:27] Take me in tender woman sighed the snake

[00:01:39] She clutched him to her bosom you're so beautiful she cried

[00:01:45] But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died

[00:01:52] She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight

[00:01:59] Instead of saying thanks the snake gave her a vicious bite

[00:02:05] Take me in tender woman

[00:02:08] Take me in for heaven's sake

[00:02:11] Take me in tender woman sighed the snake

[00:02:23] I saved you cried the woman

[00:02:26] And you've bitten me but why

[00:02:30] You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die

[00:02:36] Oh shut up silly woman said the reptile with a grin

[00:02:42] You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in

[00:02:48] Please take me in tender woman

[00:02:52] Take me in for heaven's sake

[00:02:55] Take me in tender woman sighed the snake sighed the snake

[00:03:07] Take me in tender woman sighed the snake sighed the snake

[00:03:20] Take me in tender woman
