Signifying Blues

(álbum: Bo Diddley In The Spotlight - 1960)

Well, well
That sure is a old man there playing that guitar
My, he look 10 days older than water

He he!
Say, look here!

Oh what that?

Look like your process took a recess, ha ha!

That's alright, at least I can afford to get one
You're wearing one of those do-it-yourself jobs, ain't you?

He!

Say

Yeah?

I wrote a song about you

Let me hear it!

You sure you wanna hear it?

I wanna hear all of it, never mind the tempo
You just shove on in there, he he

Alright
You is one ugly child, who can your mama clean

He he!

Oh, I got another verse, you wanna hear it?

Go ahead and sing it, let me hear it man! (Right?)
Lay it down there to me

Well, if I was your daddy
I'd go and jump in the sea
No, I ain't gonna talk about you like that
After all, it wasn't your fault

He!
Look here

Yeah?

I heard you had a new job too

Is that right?

You wanna hear what kind of job I heard that you had?

And what kind of job I got now?

Standing out in front of a doctor's office
Making people sick, eh he he!

That's alright, I heard something about you too

You heard about me?

Yes, I did
I heard that you were so ugly, that when you cry
The tears run down the back of your head
To keep from coming towards your face

He he he!
Say, look here!

What that?

What size shoes you wear?

10 and a half

Yeah?

That right

I figured you was gonna say that
Your feet look like you got on violin cases

Hey you fellas!
I still ain't got nothing to do with it
But I didn't want to tell y'all that
Ain't neither one of y'all good looking
