Bo Diddley'll buy baby a diamond ring
If that diamond ring don't shine
He's gonna take it to a private eye
If that private eye can't see
He better not take a ring a from me
Won't you come to my house a back at home
Take a my baby on the way from home
Love a that boo doo, oh where've you been
Up to your house and gone again
Bo Diddley caught a bearcat
To make a pretty baby a Sunday hat
Bo Diddley caught a nanny goat
To make a pretty baby a Sunday coat
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley have you heard
My pretty baby said she was a bird
