Billy Eckstine Jelly, Jelly Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hello, baby
I had to call you on the phone
Hello, baby
I had to call you on the phone
'Cause I feel so lonesome
And daddy wants his baby home

[Verse 2]
It's a downright rotten
Low-down, dirty shame
It's a downright rotten
Low-down, dirty shame The way that you're treatin' poor me
I know I'm not to blame

[Verse 3]
Jelly, jelly, jelly
Jelly stays on my mind
Jelly, jelly, jelly
Jelly stays on my mind
Jelly roll killed my pappy
And wrung my mommy stone blind
