Jelly Roll

Oh yeah, yeah



Ain't that bad, ain't that black, ain't that fine, yeah



Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine.



Sunday after meetings and Saturday with a man



Sweet potato pie when you eat from the pan



Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine



Ain't that bad and ain't that black and ain't that fine.



Can you dig it?



Dancing the latest dance and eating ribs and tips



Digging all the new sounds and drinking gin in sips



Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine, baby



Ain't that bad, ain't that black, ain't that fine



I could go for a ride on your sweet jelly roll



But I wouldn't give nothing for my juicy, juicy soul.



I could go for a ride on your sweet jelly roll



But I wouldn't give nothing for my juicy, juicy soul



Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine



Ain't that bad and ain't that black and ain't that fine



Let's go, let's go, let's go.



To tie up my do right (?) and tighten up my 'fro



Wrapping myself in black and still I shine and glow



Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine



Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine.
