- Donald Trump Does Dramatic Reading Of ‘The Snake’ | MSNBC (youtube.com)
At a campaign stop in Cedar Falls, Iowa, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump uses a dramatic reading of Al Wilson’s 1968 song to warn of the dangers of taking in refugees from Syria. “The Snake” tells the story of a trusting woman who invites a snake into her home and saves it from the cold, but is later tricked and bitten by it.

“The Snake” is a song written and first recorded by civil-rights activist Oscar Brown in 1963; it became a hit single for American singer Al Wilson in 1968. The song tells a story similar to Aesop’s fable The Farmer and the Viper and the African American folktale “Mr. Snake and the Farmer”.
