Diddley Daddy [*] Lyrics

[Chorus: x4]
Diddley, diddley, diddley, diddley, daddy

Well I got a baby whose oh so pretty
Found her right here in this knock dead city
Saw somebody kissing my baby last night
My baby said Jimmy that's all right

[Chorus: x3]

Baby now baby understand
Jimmy looks good but he's a happy man
Roly looks good but he's oh so cold
That big ol' drummer gonna wreck your soul

[Chorus: x3]

Two orphan babies were a laying in the bed
The big one turned to Jimmy and said
"I love you Jimmy with all of my heart"
Jimmy woke up and tore the place apart

[Chorus: x3]

Well baby now baby hear my scene
I want to know if you do love me
I love you baby with all my heart
Oh please don't ever say we will part

[Chorus: x2]

A-be-by-bick-ya-bye-go-go-go-yeah!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
