Lyrics
(Folk song)
Black snake, black snake, where are you hiding? (repeat twice)
Don’t you bite me!
Game
One child hides. All other students march past the “snake’s” hiding place until the snake runs out and tags someone who becomes the new snake.

Do you know the directions for how to play the game variation that is shown in the video? It’s hard to see exactly what they’re doing, but it looks like fun
No, I’m not sure. Maybe reach out to the person who posted the video? Good luck!
