AmCottonmouth's got a Cpoison tongue,
They Dmlook kinda pretty but they're not much fun.
And a AmBlacksnake, they don't Cdo too much,
they just Dmlay in the grass and look at the bugs.
[Chorus 1]
CRattlesnakesAm, we're not like all the other snakes,
CRattlesnakes Amwe got musical tails that we shake
We Fshake shake shake'em while you clap your hands,
We Gdon't wanna bite you all we really wanna do is Cdance.G  
All the other snake don't understand..
[Verse 3]
AmPython's stomach can Cget so big, 
he can Dmswallow up a whole full sized pig.
And a AmCopperhead slithers Cthrough the sticks,
his Dmpoison won't kill you but it'll make you kinda sick.
[Verse 4]
And a AmMoray eel isn't Cactually a snake
but he's Dmugly and lives in an underwater cave.
I'm Amtired of talking about Call these other snakes.
Right now Dmthere's only one snake worth talking about.
