Box Of Spiders lyrics

Gran Gran keeps a box of spiders.
She says they re on me when I sleep.
Waiting in the out-house for me.
underneath the seat.

My great-grandmothers bout ninety-seven
and she is sure when she gets to heaven,
old St. Peter s gonna throw his arms around her and say
I ve waited so long for us to meet .
She put the General in a box
and buried him behind the Stoney Point Church of Christ,
when I was three.

(and she says) "When the lord comes to take me,
I ll die with a smile on, cause He s taking all my pains and fears."
She said The Generals last words were
"It s hotter than hell in here".

Gran Gran keeps a box of spiders,
or so she told me as a child,
and I would hold it in for hours.
Too mean to die. Too mean to die. Too mean.
