“Cherry Poppin' Daddy Strut” is narrated from the point-of-view of a man who has, as his mistress, someone who is already in a relationship with another man. It is a very brash and boisterous dixieland jazz number.
[Verse 1]
Baby gotta quit your cryin'
About your lyin' to your old man
Because I know, you know and he knows
I'm your Cherry Poppin' Daddy man
I wanna give ya a little taste of heaven
And he only wants to hold your hand
Because I know, you know and he knows
I'm your Cherry Poppin' Daddy man
Good god! Cherry Poppin' Daddy man
[Chorus]
Yeah, lipstick is all on my collar
Well, the fruit baby is on my vine
Well, girl I'm gonna make ya, momma
Hoot and holler out my name
[Verse 2]
You gotta quit all your complainin'
And baby tellin' me that I don't know
Because I know, you know and he knows
That life is just a honky tonk show
Can't you hear them big city horns blowin'
Clear across the town?
Let's take a cake walk over to Gabriel
And blow your Cherry Poppin' Daddy down
Oh yeah! Cherry Poppin' Daddy down
[Chorus]
Yeah, lipstick is all on my collar
Well, the fruit baby is on my vine
Well, girl I'm gonna make ya, momma
Hoot and holler out my name
