"Punkin Brown" Song Demo - Music & Lyrics by John Cionca

[jakethefiddle]

good song,i might write as song called leave them snakes alone,if snakes wanted to dance with humans ,they would grow legs and arms and get a brain reduction,strange thing to do,it seems to me,havn't seen many snakes in england,i expect they saw this video and are keeping a low profile!good bit of music.

who ever wrote this did a wonderful job... Punkin was my father and alot of the facts in this song was true espeacialy on the things he'd preach against

If you look up the film'In Jesus Name "taking up serpents" on" You Tube" look at the 17.45 seventeen minutes 45 seconds mark on the film you will see a short interveiw with Punkin Brown and also him handling

It appears that these people work themselves into a kind of trance until they don't really know what they are doing. They also appear to be isolated and ill educated (not meant as an insult) - but it is easy to influence people like that, don't you agree? Punkin Brown and his wife didn't live to tell the tale, unfortunately............

Looks like the church in Jolo, WV. Dewey Chafin in the blue shirt is one of the snake handlers at that church, known as "signs-following" churches.
