Tim Hardin – Bo Diddley lyrics
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley where ya goin?
going down town for the sugar and the corn
hey bo diddley, bo bo diddley

bo diddley bo diddley gonna buy a mockingbird
If that mockingbird don't sing
gonna buy you a diamond ring
bo bo diddley

took the key to my catalac car
bo bo diddley
she took the key and she drive it far
bo bo diddley

when i was a young boy bout the age of ten daddy said won't you treat me bad, won't let you back in again
bo diddley bo bo diddley

when i was a young boy 'bout the age of five, my daddy said i had so many pockets to keep a girl alive.
bo diddley bo bo diddley

bo diddley bo bo diddley where you been?
around the world and around again
bo diddley bo bo diddley...
