Track byBobby Darin, Johnny Mercer
I ain't gonna give nobody none of my jellyroll How 'bout your short'nin' bread Oh, I wouldn't give you a piece a pie to save your soul I guess that's what you said My Ma told me today, when she went away To buy groceries To be a good boy, she'd give me a toy 'Cause I'm my Mama's pride and joy There ain't no use of anyone to keep a hangin' 'round Maybe I'm waitin' on your Ma You don't know my Ma, she'd really put you down Put me down Ma's bakin' up a storm, and her oven is still warm I know you want it, but you can't have it And I ain't gonna give you none You dirty boy! I ain't gonna give nobody none of my jellyroll Oh, such a stingy chap! I wouldn't give you a piece a pie to save your soul How 'bout a zuzu snap Her cherry pie is fine, her layer cake divine But I'm tellin' you twice, you can't get a slice Unless you're extra special nice Now, there ain't no use of you to just keep a hangin' 'round Oh, pretty please I love you but I hate to put you down Yeah, my jellyroll is sweet That it is! It sure is hard to beat Well, I know they want it But, they can't have it Yeah, ho-ho Miss Nelly, I mean my jellyroll Dibs on the dishpan I got seconds
