Rum Drunks, The - Jelly For My Shoes lyrics

rate me

Got jelly for my shoes

I likes to stay out late

I like my women loose

I like my whiskey straight

Ain’t no way for the babies all to play when the crocodile’s singin the blues

It’s not a felony to write me a melody about my jelly for my shoes, no.

So let the water run

And let the coffee stain

Got jelly for my gun

Got jelly for my pain

Ain’t no way for the babies all to play when the crocodile’s singin the blues

It’s not a felony to write me a melody about my jelly for my shoes, no.

Seeing you so sad and blue, it cuts me like a knife

Give me jelly for my shoes and you can be my wife.

Yes, you can be my wife

And cook and clean all day

I’ll stay with the boys and play

And every night you’ll pray

That I’ll be home someday
