The Snake Bite
Audra Mae

I heard about the venom

At a broke down five and dime,

The rain cried down the windows

Just like those tears of mine,

Just then a gray haired woman

Sat down right next to me

Cause she heard me cryin'.

Looked in my eyes and said,

Baby I got what you need.


You need the snake bite.

You got to get that venom

In your veins and come alive.

I know just what you go through

Every day; that pain inside.

But I can make it right

With the snake bite.


She handed me a map with streets

I said I’d never seen and she told me,

My friend, this town has secrets

Darker than you could ever dream.

I went to some back alley

Behind a liquor store.

If someone had told me

How tight it would hold me,

I never would’ve opened the door.


My mama told me, Baby be wary of

Evil ones who want to ensnare

The heavy hearted into their webs

And feed upon their souls.

Oh, Mama, I hope you never know.


It hasn’t been a year, now

And all my hair is gray.

You know, it's funny but

I don’t remember my own name.

I'd go and hurt that woman

Who put this pain in me,

But my heart is weak.

It wants that venom.

She comes around cause she knows


Oh, I got the snake bite.
