Bo Diddley Is a Poet

I know a girl who's short and pretty

When I'm around her I try to be witty

I get myself all tongue tied

And I think about her day and night

If I had the poet's touch

I could tell that girl she means so much to me

Oh, that girl is oh so sweet

When I first saw her I was knocked off my feet

I'd ask her out if I had the chance

My heart beating fast to the Bo Diddley dance

She's my love, my one desire

Come on girl, set my life on fire please!

Ah, please!

Pinch myself to keep from dreaming

Cos when I'm with her the world is gleaming

She's the Sun in my Summer sky

Electrifies me in the night

She's my world, my queen of dreams

I can't describe this spell she's put on me

On me

On me
