Verse 
 Cm 
Rattlesnake said to the copperhead 
       Cm 
"You give us vipers a real bad name 
     Cm 
You prey on the weakest, in fact for no reason 
    Cm 
No wonder we get blamed" 
 Cm 
Copperhead laughed, said "Kiss my ass! 
         Cm 
You can bark but there ain't much bite 
     Cm 
You rattle that tail, but it's fear I smell 
    Cm 
I think you're shaking out of fright" 

 
       Cm 
Rattlesnake, copperhead 
               Cm 
Either one of them'll kill you dead 
         Cm 
We stay hungry, they get fed 
           Cm 
And don't pass the plate around 
       Cm 
Lie by lie, cheat by cheat 
      Cm 
Venom in smiling teeth 
           Cm 
They just run those forked tongues 
         Cm 
And the whole world's burning down
