Snake Charmer - 1930 Version
I hear some music far away
After a party night
As I'm walking through the city streets
I bump into this guy
He blows the whistle everyday
I hear it all the time
But everything changed
When I look into his eyes
I think he hypnotized me
I feel I have to dance
And every time he plays it
He puts me in a trance
I'm your black mamba lady
Slowly coming up
And hide back in my basket
When the music stops
Mister snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
I'm your snake tattoo
Tell me what you want
And I'll do what you want me to do
I think he hypnotized me
I feel I have to dance
And every time he plays it
He puts me in a trance
I'm your black mamba lady
Slowly coming up
And hide back in my basket
When the music stops
But when I'm fed up dancing
I kill you with my venom
Don't think you can escape
I will find you with my tongue
And swallow you in one piece
When your completely numb
And look for other charmer man
To play that same old song
Mister snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
I'm your snake tattoo
Tell me what you want
And I'll do what you want me to do
But when I'm fed up dancing
I kill you with my venom
Don't think you can escape
I will find you with my tongue
And swallow you in one piece
When your completely numb
And look for other charmer man
To play that same old song
Mister snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
I'm your snake tattoo
Tell me what you want
And I'll do what you want me to do
I'll do what you want me to do
After a party night
As I'm walking through the city streets
I bump into this guy
He blows the whistle everyday
I hear it all the time
But everything changed
When I look into his eyes
I think he hypnotized me
I feel I have to dance
And every time he plays it
He puts me in a trance
I'm your black mamba lady
Slowly coming up
And hide back in my basket
When the music stops
Mister snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
Playing on your flute
Let me crawl around you
Please play me a tune or two
Snake charmer
I'm your snake tattoo
Tell me what you want
And I'll do what you want me to do
I think he hypnotized me
I feel I have to dance
And every time he plays it
He puts me in a trance
I'm your black mamba lady
Slowly coming up
And hide back in my basket
When the music stops
But when I'm fed up dancing
I kill you with my venom
Don't think you can escape

Tell me what you want
And I'll do what you want me to do
I'll do what you want me to do
