Grateful Dead - Dupree's Diamond Blues songtekst

Je score:

----------------------

When I was just a little young boy,
Papa said, "Son, you'll never get far,
I'll tell you the reason if you want to know,
cause child of mine, there isn't really very far to go."

Well baby, baby wants a gold diamond ring
Wants it more than most any old thing
Well when I get those jelly roll blues
Why I'd go and get anything in this world for you.

And down to the jewelry store packing a gun,
says, "Wrap it up. I think I'll take this one."
"A thousand dollars please." the jewelry man said,
Dupree he said, "I'll pay this one off to you in lead."

Well you know son you just can't figure,
first thing you know you're gonna pull that trigger,
and it's no wonder your reason goes bad,
jelly roll will drive you stone mad.

Judge said, "Son, you know it's gonna cost you some time."
Dupree said, "Judge, you know that crossed my mind."
Judge said, "N'fact it's gonna cost you your life."
Dupree he said, "Judge, you know that seems to me to be about right."

Well baby, baby's gonna lose her sweet man,
Dupree come out with a losing hand,
Baby's gonna weep at home for awhile,
then go out and find another sweet man's gonna treat her with style.

Judge said, "Son, I know your baby well,
but that's a Cecrel I can never tell."
Dupree said, "Judge, well it's well understood,
and you got to admit that that sweet, sweet jelly's so good."

Well you know son you just can't figure,
first thing you know you're gonna pull that trigger,
and it's no wonder you reason most bad,
jelly roll will drive you so mad.

Same old story and I know it's been told,
some like jelly, jelly some like gold,
many a man's done a terrible thing,
just to get baby a shiny diamond ring.

Ah oh do do do do do dooo
Do do do da do do do do
Da do do do da da da de
Da do doo doo doo da da da doo
