Serpent Lyrics

When she went walking in the woods
She heard someone call out to her
And then she noticed the man
Who would become her husband
She went away with him
To his home in a cave
He said "Stay for three days"
Instead she stayed three years

She was so far from home
But safe inside the cavern
He said her family would find her
And one day he was proven right

Her Serpent
Husband

And when they found her there
They asked her what she'd done
And when she told them
She saw her husband come
This time he was no man
He was in his true form
She was living with a snake
In a land of plentiful corn

Next time you go in the Wood
Don't listen to the whistles
Every time you hear a sound
Turn and walk away
If a man should call you
Never walk with him
Always ignore the signal
Or a snake be your husband
