I remember when mary lou said
'you wanna walk me home from school'
and i said, 'yes, i do'
she said, 'i don't have to go right home
and i'm the kind that likes to be alone
as long as you would'
i said, 'me, too'
And so we took a stroll
wound up down by the swimmin' hole
and she said, 'do what you want to do'
i got silly and i found a frog
in the water by a hollow log
and i shook it at her
and i said 'this frog's for you'
she said...
Chorus:
'i don't like spiders and snakes
and that ain't what it takes to love me
you fool, you fool
i don't like spiders and snakes
and that ain't what it takes to love me
like i want to be loved by you'
Well, i think of that girl from time to time
i call her up when i got a dime
i say, "hello, baby'
she says, 'ain't you cool'
i say, 'do you remember when?
and would you like to get together again?'
she says, 'i'll see you after school'
I was shy and so for a while
most of my love was touch and smile
til she said, 'come on over here'
i was nervous as you might guess
still looking for somethin' to slip down her dress
and she said, 'let's make it perfectly clear'
she said...
