Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Told Diddley to buy his baby a diamond ring
If that diamond ring don't shine
He going to take it to a private eye
If that private eye can't see
He'd better not take the ring from me
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Mojo come to my house, and grab that bone
Take my baby away from home
Ugly asked Mojo where's he been
Up your house and gone again
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley, have you heard?
My pretty baby said she want the fur
