Lyrics

(One, two, three, four)
Bo Diddley buy babe a 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 from me
Bo Diddley caught a nanny goat
To make his pretty baby a Sunday coat
Bo Diddley caught a bearcat
To make his pretty baby a Sunday hat
Mojo come to my house, a black cat bone
Take my baby away from home
Mother ask Mojo, "Where you been"?
Up your house and goin' again
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley have you heard?
My pretty baby said she was a bird
