Bo Diddley lyrics

Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley, have you heard?

Mama gonna buy you a mockingbird

If that mockingbird don't sing

She gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring don't shine

Baby gonna take it to a private eye

If that private eye can't see

He gonna have to come an' talk to me

I said hey, Bo Diddley

Hey now, Bo Diddley

Hey now, Bo Diddley

Hey now, Bo Diddley

Hey, hey, heyyyy

I walked 47 miles of barbed wire

I used a cobra snake for a necktie

I got a brand new house on the roadside, child

Made out of rattlesnake hide

Brand new chimney, baby, there on top

Made out of human skulls

Come and take a little walk with me, Arlene

Tell me who do you love

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Arlene took me by my hand

Said, "Cool it Robert, you know you're my man"

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love, yeah?

I wanna know

The night was dark, they say the sky was blue

Down the alley and I'm swingin' through

"Get a phone, child", someone screamed

Lord, I heard just what I seen

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?
