Bo Diddley just buy his baby 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 a-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 wi' black cat bone A-take my baby away from home Up in that fo' door a-where you been Up yo' house and gone again
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley have you heard? My pretty baby says she wants a bird.
