lyrics

SWEET PAPA JELLY ROLL

In those days I had the habit
In those days I had to roam
I’m drinking wine now eating rabbit
I’m well set up in my stately home
Jelly Roll he drew a tiger
Held that tiger by the tail
Sheep eye caught him taught him rightly
Fear of failure means you’ll fail

CHORUS:
Sweet Papa Jelly Roll
He lives fast he’s on the go
Sweet Papa Jelly Roll
They all love you don’t you know

Sit up back straight Don’t you slouch none
Bang! Bang! You’re dead. Go away.
You got lovin babe cane I have some?
Come here honey. You made my day.
I’m a straight man. You’re a bent one.
You’re my friend and I am yours
If ones missing why not rent one
Come here honey you made my day

CHORUS

Playing music making faces
In the evenings drinking beer
You smile and smile as you remember
You got to know her biblically
Diamond studs on her fingers
And her man is lying dead
He don’t need her forgiveness
He don’t need her wine and bread

CHORUS

- Konrad Lenz circa 2OO5
