Ron & Hazel Ellis – Sneaky Snake (Live at Wandong Country Music Festival 1979)

Recorded live at the 8th Annual Wandong Country Music Festival (1979)** This cheerful rendition of “Sneaky Snake” became one of Ron & Hazel Ellis’s most loved children’s songs — bringing laughter, movement, and a little bit of mischief to audiences across Australia. Originally written by Tom T. Hall, the song was performed by Ron & Hazel with their colorful, handmade “Sneaky Snake” puppet — a crowd favourite that had kids giggling and parents smiling wherever they performed. 🎤 “Hey kids, it’s Sneaky Snake!” That familiar line became part of their signature stage charm — full of warmth, humour, and country storytelling. 📍 Live Recording: Wandong Country Music Festival, Victoria 🎼 Original Song: “Sneaky Snake” by Tom T.
