Country Six (The Snail Song)

sung by The Amazing Slim

Voiceover: "Here's a little number I thought you should know.
It has snails in it so it goes kind of slow.
It's called 'Six.'"

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 snails

Six tiny snails leaving six silver trails
Six silver trails as shiny as nails
Six shiny nails with six pointed tips
Six silk sails on six sailing ships

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ships

Well the six sailing ships on six spouting whales
All got home to dinner long before the snails

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 snails
