Mr. Jelly Roll Baker - Leon Redbone

Mr. Jellyroll Baker

Let me be your slave

When Gabriel blows his trumpet

Let me rise from my grave

Tell me it’s good Jelly

Good to my worried soul

Aw it’s good for the sick

And it’s good for the young and old

Let me put in my order

For two weeks ahead

Jelly you got have

My homecooked bread

I’m crazy about that jelly

Good to my worried soul

Aw it’s good for the sick

And it’s good for the young and old

There’s a man down in the hospital

Shot full of holes

Nurse sent the Dr. down there to get some good Jelly Roll

Shot down by Jelly

Good for my worried soul

Ya there gonna let him lose his life

Rather than miss my Jelly Roll

Mr. Jelly Roll Baker

Let me be your slave

Gabriel blows his trumpet

Let me rise from my grave

With some of your good jelly

Good jelly rolls

Its good for the sick

And its good for the young and old

Let me put in my order

For two weeks ahead

Jelly you got have

My homecooked bread

I’m crazy about that jelly

Good to my worried soul

Aw it’s good for the sick

And it’s good for the young and old
