(ellas mcdaniel) 1955 |
|
Bo diddley bought his babe a diamond ring, |
|
If that diamond ring don't shine, |
|
He gonna take it to a private eye, |
|
If that private eye can't see |
|
He'd better not take the ring from me. |
|
Bo diddley caught a nanny goat, |
|
To make his pretty baby a sunday coat, |
|
Bo diddley caught a bear cat, |
|
To make his pretty baby a sunday hat. |
|
Mojo come to my house, ya black cat bone, |
|
Take my baby away from home, |
|
Ugly ole mojo, where ya bin, |
|
Up your house, and gone again. |
|
Bo diddley, bo diddley have you heard? |
|
My pretty baby said she wasn't for it. |
