Slithering throughout the night
Spread terror fear and fright
Jake the snake he came to be
The quickest son ‘o’ bitch you never did see
[chorus]
He was thourough
He ate his cake
This is the legend
Of jake the snake
Left no clues behind
For the police to find
Except he always left his gun
On every fool
That he laid in a pool
Of blood
Jake the snake another strike
His classic pistol, his classic bite
A lovely mistress lay but the killer was gone
The snakes on the run for the deed was done
[chrous]
Wanted dead, even alive
Everyone feared his vicious bite
Never was caught for the lives he did take
This is the legend of jake the snake
