Jelly Roll Lyrics


Hey Mr Jelly Roll Baker
Can I please be your slave?
When I'm dead and gone
I'm gonna rise up from the grave
For your sweet jelly roll
The best jelly roll in town
You're the only man baking
And I'm gonna keep my damper down
Well, can I place an order
For three weeks ahead?
I'd rather have my jellies
Than some ol' big bed
'Cause I'm crazy 'bout that jelly
The best jelly roll in town
You're the only man baking

And I'm gonna keep your damper down
You can take all my women
You can talk even more
I gotta brand new secret
You can't catch at all
I'm a jelly roll baker
I bake the best jelly roll in town
I'm the only man baking
And I'm gonna keep my damper down
I'm the only man baking
And I'm gonna keep my damper down
