There's a mean black snake
Sneaking round my baby's back door
Mean black snake
Sneaking round my baby's back door
Gonna tell that mean black snake
He can't see my baby anymore
The good book says
We've got to love our neighbor just like we love ourselves
The good book says people
We've got to love our neighbor just like we love ourselves
Gonna tell that mean black snake
To take his loving somewhere else
I need no mojo
People I wanna tell you I need no magic hand
Need no mojo
Woman I need no magic hand
I'm gonna tell that mean black snake
He got to understand
Mean black snake
Sneaking round my baby's back door
Mean black snake
Sneaking round my baby's back door
But I'm gonna tell that mean black snake
He ain't gonna see my baby no more
