[Verse 1]
Jelly roll, jelly, lay down on my mind
Run your mama crazy, babe, and run your papa blind
About that jelly (Babe), my jelly roll
Have all the world goin' crazy about my jelly roll
[Verse 2]
Jelly, now jelly, I'll tell you what he done
He made an older woman marry her own dear son
About that jelly (Babe), my jelly roll
Have all the world goin' crazy about my jelly roll
[Verse 3]
Jelly roll, jelly, it's an awful shame
Made a ten cent woman lose her thousand dollar man
About that jelly (Babe), my jelly roll
Have all the world goin' crazy about my jelly roll
[Verse 4]
[?] going to school
Look at myself, I'm a jelly-rollin' fool
Oh that jelly (Babe), my jelly roll
Have all the world goin' crazy about my jelly roll
[Verse 5]
I done sung this song, ain't gwine sing it no more
If you want to hear it again, come to another show
You'll hear that jelly (Babe), my jelly roll
Have all the world goin' crazy about my jelly roll
