The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle on your snout
They eat your eyes, they eat your nose
They eat the jelly between your toes
Do you ever think when a hearse goes by that you may be the next to die?
They wrap you up in a big white sheet from your head down to your feet
They put you in a big black box and cover you up with dirt and rocks
All goes well for about a week
Then your coffin begins to leak!
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle on your snout
They eat your eyes, they eat your nose
They eat the jelly between your toes
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
Be merry my friend be merry!
