Ronnie Hawkins - The Giant of Rock 'N' Roll

Bo-Diddley

Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Said, yeah, Bo-Diddley (yeah)

Bo-Diddley, Bo-Diddley, have you heard?
My baby gonna buy me a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird don't sing
My baby gonna buy me a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring don't shine
My baby gonna take it to a private eye
And if that private eye can't be
She ain't gonna get no love from me

Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Said, yeah, Bo-Diddley (yeah)

All you women, you stand in line
I'll lodge your baby in an hour's time
Got me a baby, she'll live on a hill
If she don't love-love, somebody will
Me and my baby, we had a date
She wriggle that thing like a Cadillac is
All you women now as I see
Ain't gonna get my woman from me

Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Hey, Bo-Diddley (hey, Bo-Diddley)
Said, yeah, Bo-Diddley, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
