Willie And Lillie

(album: Go Bo Diddley - 1959)

Willie and Lillie used to live on a hill
Wasn't for rock n' roll, Lillie be there still
Rock her own little rock-a-billys
Made me lose a-my sweet, little, Lillie

Forty days, forty nights
Still no Lillie in sight
Up on the mountain like a jack
Holling an howling 'til Lillie, come back
Up on the mountain I was facing the moon
Ev'ry little star tell me be Lillie, soon

Up on the mountain at the general store
Willie's mama bought him a hi-fi, his very own
On up the road, Willie strolled
Just about the time Lillie knocked on the do'

She said, "Hello, Willy I love you so"
He said, "Hello, Lillie why did you go?"
She said, "A-hello, Willie I ain't gon' leave no mo"

He said, "Hello, Lillie I love you, so"
"Hello, Willie, I love you, so"
He said, "A-hello Lillie"
