Lyrics

[Intro]
Wop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom
[Chorus]
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Wop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom
[Verse 1]
I got a girl named Sue
She knows just what to do
I got a girl named Sue
She knows just what to do
She rocks to the East
She rocks to the West
But she's the girl that I love best
[Chorus]
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Ooh, tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Wop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom
[Verse 2]
I got a girl named Daisy
She almost drives me crazy
Got a girl named Daisy
She almost drives me crazy
She knows how to love me
Yes, indeed
Boy, you don't know what she do to me
[Chorus]
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Ooh, tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Womp bomp a loo-bomp
Aw, ow!
[Chorus]
Ah, tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Ooh, tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Wop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom
[Verse 3]
Got a girl named Daisy
She almost drives me crazy
Got a girl named Daisy
She almost drives me crazy
She knows how to love me
Yes, indeed
Boy, you don't know what she do to me
[Chorus]
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Ooh, tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
Tutti frutti, oh, Rutti
