"Jelly For My Shoes" Lyrics

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
