E
Well, I'm the Crawling King Snake,
and I rule my den
          A7                               E
I'm the Crawling King Snake and I rule my den
            B7
Yeah, don't mess around with my mate,
         A              E
going to use her for myself

Caught me crawling, baby,
when the grass is very high
Keep on crawling until the day I die
Crawling King Snake and I rule my den
You better give me what I want,
ain't going to crawl no more

Got me crawling baby, crawling around your door
Seeing everything I want
I'm going to crawl on your floor
Let's crawl and I rule my den
Come on, give me what I want
ain't gonna crawl no more

          E
Come on crawl Come on crawl,
A7
Get on your hands and knees, baby
E
Crawl all over me
                B7              A7
Just like the spider on the wall,
                       E
Ooo, we are going to crawl, one more

                 E
Well I am your Crawling King snake,
I rule my den
             A7                             E
Call me the Crawling King snake, I rule my den
            B7
Yes, don't mess with my mate,
      A7             E
gonna use her for myself
