Bo Diddley Run Diddley Daddy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was down in the jungle picking wild beans
Something jumped up that I never before seen
I picked up my bag and I tried to make a getaway
Chances did I heard somebody say

[Chorus]
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run

[Verse 2]
I was running so fast that I didn't even leave a track
Whatever it is caught me snatched the shirt off of my back
Running through the jungle was such a breeze
Till I shook all the leaves off the bamboo trees

[Chorus]
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run

[Verse 3]
I was running through the jungle with a terrible breeze
I tripped over a stump and I hurt my knees When the people in the village they saw me running
They didn't know what was going on, they thought things were awfully funny but I said

[Chorus]
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run

Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run

[Verse 4]
I was running so fast that I didn't even say goodbye
Sprouted wings on my feet and I began to fly
Flew so far away from that land
Found myself straddled on a United airplane

[Chorus]
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run

Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
Run run run, Diddley Daddy
Run run run
