He's A Jelly-Roll Baker - Lonnie Johnson
She said 'Mr Jelly Roll Baker let me be your slave
When Gabriel blows his trumpet then I'll rise from my grave
For some of your good jelly roll yes I love good jelly roll
It is good for the sick yes and it's good for the old '
I was sentenced for murder in the first degree
The Judge's wife call up and says 'Let that man go free
He's a Jelly Roll Baker he's got the best jelly roll in town
He's the only man can bake jelly roll with his damper down '
Man was in the hospital shot all full of holes
The nurse left the man dyin' and said she 's got to get her jelly roll
Its good old jelly she says 'I love my good jelly roll '
She said 'I'd rather let him lose his life than to miss my good jelly roll '
Lady asked me who learnt me how to bake good jelly roll
I said 'Nobody miss it's just a gift from my soul
To bake good jelly roll mmmmm that good ol' jelly roll '
She says 'I love your jelly roll its does me good deep down in my soul '
She says 'Can I put in a order for two weeks ahead
I'd rather have your jelly rolls than my home-cooked bread
I love your jelly I love your good jelly roll
It's just like Maxwell House coffee it good deep down in my soul '
