Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember when Mary Lou said,"You wanna walk me home from school?"
Well, I said, "Yes, I do"
She said, "I don't have to go right home
And I would kinda like to be alone some if you would"
I said, "Me too"
And so, we took a stroll
Wound up down by the swimmin' hole and she said,
"Do what you wanna do"
I got silly and I found a frog
In the water by a hollow log
And I shook it at her, and I said "This frog's for you"
[Verse 2]
And she said, "I don't like spiders and snakes
And that ain't what it takes to love me you fool, you fool
I don't like spiders and snakes
And that ain't what it takes to love me like I wanna be loved by you"
[Verse 3]
Well, I think of that girl from time to time
I call her up when I got a dime
I say, "Hello, baby", she said, "Ain't you cool?"
Said, "Do you remember when? And would you like to get together again?"
She said, "I'll see you after school"
I was shy and so for a while most of my love was touch and smile
Till she said, "Come on over here"
I was nervous as you might guess, still lookin' for something to slip down her dress
And she said, "Let's make it perfectly clear"
[Verse 4]
She said, "I don't like spiders and snakes
And that ain't what it takes to love me you fool, you fool
I don't like spiders and snakes
And that ain't what it takes to love me like I wanna be loved by you"
