Bo Diddley bought his baby 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

Bo Diddley bought a nanny goat
To make his pretty baby a Sunday coat
Bo Diddley bought a bear-a-cat
To make his pretty baby a Sunday hat

And take my baby away from home
Ask that Mojo where's he been
Up to your house and gone again
