Charley Pride - Snakes Crawl At Night Lyrics






All te snakes crawl at night that's what they say
When the sun goes down then the sneaks will play

I watched that car pull right up into my driveway
Saw a shadow slip away from my house
So I hurried straight and looked in her room
And I found out that it was my loving spouse
All te snakes crawl at night...

So I waited in the shadows until morning and the gun I held was trembling in my hand
No I did not plan to give them any warning
Cause the devil on my shoulder had command
All te snakes crawl at night...

Oh the trial in a little while was over and they sentenced me to die right away
But before I leave this courtroom please Your Honor
There's something more that I would like to say
All te snakes crawl at night...
All te snakes crawl at night...

    This is what happens, when you love a whore, and you do not know she is a whore. Every body in town know, she is a whore, but you.

  11. D.... K....

    I hate snake but I like Charlie Pride!

  14. J.... W....

    Solid country gold.
    Hats off to Charlie for his confidence in his voice, and his manager for his good ear.

  15. j.... g....

    Its about the clan .very clever song

  16. D.... M....

  17. D.... R....

    465 comments...not 1 commie in the Pack. MAGA.
    TRUMP 2020.

  18. L.... P....

    Charlie Pride has a great country music voice.

  19. E.... H....

    I have done with an X girl friend.

  20. g.... ....

    The snakes play all day in D.C. mostly in a certain spot in FL.

  21. K.... W....

    I love Charlie, grew up on him, remember this from road trips as a child, no safety harness all singing along. The kids today are missing so much

    K.... W....

    They are ...now that we have dismantled standards, discipline ....etc

  22. n.... f....

    The scripture says "the law works wrath" You know and I know "thou shall not commit adultery"
    You ARE religion.
    Are you offended?
    My dad's friend shot his wife and her lover on his own couch at Christmas after he awoke from being passed out.
    The commandments are real folks.
    You broke them too..either you accused, or you excused one another from your conscience. Your emotions prove it; anger malice deceit envy covet...see?
    That is the real you.
    Why pretend that it is righteous to put your faith in self righteousness?
    Tragically the song doesn't end
    "lord have mercy on me a sinner"
    but rather blames the snakes that crawl at night..he uses the law to justify himself.
    "What does the law say? That no flesh will be justified in His sight"
    ..."for they established their own righteousness which is of the law, having not submitted to the righteousness of Christ"
    "God has concluded them all in unbelief so that He might have mercy upon all"
    Take the offer of salvation Christ provided for you at the cross.
    Wrath and judgment on sinners is real..you have no hope for righteousness meriting eternal life unless forgiven by His grace and mercy.
    God who gave the law is holy.
    You are not.

  23. C.... C....

    I love love love this song!!!! :)

  24. J.... G....

    Its a terrible thing to be betrayed. My advice is to leave them and have nothing to do with the cheaters. An adulterer has no morality

  25. T.... W....

    This is my favorite song ever

  26. M.... ....

    Kill snakes discreetly! Amen

  27. G.... M....

    This song applies to many of us..."and it ain't pretty." Too many memories here and not enough space. All who've been affected...you have my thoughts, but carry on. Those who' hurt you aren't worth the time of day.

  28. T.... M....

    NOOOOOOO DO NOT DID

  29. T.... ....

    these songs you can hear 1 time & remember the tune, 1 can't today they are just making a noise, no talent
