Sammy The Spider

Words & Music by Erika Paul
From the cd entitled, "Scat's My Bag"

Does anybody REALLY like spiders?
Not me, or at least I never ever thought I could
Then I met a little spider that I named Sammy
So I gave him a chance like I felt I should

Sammy
How does he walk upside down?
Sammy
The ceiling is just like the ground to him
Sammy, with toes so unbelievably strong
Where ever he is, he can never go wrong

How does he do THAT? How does he defy gravity?
How does he spin his web? To me, it' a true mystery

Sammy
How does he walk upside down?
Sammy
The ceiling is just like the ground to him
Sammy, with toes so unbelievably strong
Where ever he is, he can never go wrong

Like Tarzan swinging on a grapevine
Sammy swings even farther on a shiny silky line
Just as long as he stays in his own space
I'll let him live another day

Sammy
How does he walk upside down?
Sammy
The ceiling is just like the ground to him
Sammy, with toes so unbelievably strong
Where ever he is, he can never go wrong

Sammy, I was afraid of you then
Sammy, the name that I gave you makes you a friend
Sammy, your toes are unbelievably strong
And now you're a friend at the end of this song
Sammy, with toes so unbelievably strong
Where ever you are, you can never go wrong. Sammy...
