We've been a long time together now
Time together on the Snakey Road
There ain't no time together
Like time spent together on the Snakey Road
Winding on through the hills forever
Winding on at Snakey Road
Winding on forever
Winding on at Snakey Road
What's that they're telling you?
That's your future, I'm telling you
You gotta pick a pocket or two
We've been a long time together
Time together on the Snakey Road
There ain't no time together
Cf., the song  You’ve Got to Pick a Pocket or Two  from the Lionel Bart musical  Oliver!
