be real careful or he'd get bit. He snuk up behine de
snake and grabbed him roun de haid. Dat ole snake din't
lak dat one bit. He squirmed and wrapped hisself roun
Boudreaux's arm try'n to get hisself free. But Boudreaux,

Well, Boudreaux pried his mouf open and got de frog and
puts it in his baitcan. Now, Boudreaux knows dat he cain't
let go dat snake or his gonna bite him good, but he had a
plan.
He reach into de back pocket of his bib overhauls and
pulls out a pint a moonshine likker. He pour some drops
into de snakes mouf.
Well, dat snake's eyeballs roll back in his haid and
his body go limp.
