Del McCoury Band - Snake in the House Lyrics
The door stood wide openHe knew there was something wrongHe ran through the houseAnd found that she was goneIt looked like a Texas twisterHad cut a path thru thereHe found these words in lipstickOn the bathroom mirrorThere’s a snake in the houseAnd he’s been shedding skinLeaving behindSigns of where he’s beenNow I’m telling youIf it’s the last thing that you doThere’s a snake in the house,Get it outNow right below these wordsPiled up in the sinkHe saw his shirt with lipstick on itA color cheating pinkAnd a bill from a roomThat he signed Mr. SmithBut the way he signed the dotted lineIs something that she couldn’t missThere’s a snake in the houseAnd he’s been Shedding skinsLeaving behind signs of where he’s beenNow I’m telling youIf it’s the last thing that you doThere’s a snake in the house,Get it outAin’t no way around itIt’s the poisonJust one biteWill kill true love very timeThere’s a snake in the house aAnd he’s been shedding skinLeaving behindSigns of where he’s beenNow I’m telling youMake this the last thing that you doAnd before I get backGet out
