Written by e. mcdaniel, arc music corp. bmi (1980?)

Here's a little story that I really want to tell
It's about bo diddley at the o.k corral
Now, bo diddley didn't start no mess
He had a gun on his hip and a rose on his vest

'Cause bo diddley's a gunslinger
(Bo diddley's a gunslinger)
Bo diddley's a gunslinger
(Bo diddley's a gunslinger)

Bo diddley's a gunslinger
(Bo diddley's a gunslinger)
Bo diddley's a gunslinger
(Bo diddley's a gunslinger)

Bo diddley buys him a diamond ring
If that diamond ring don't shine
He better take it to a private eye
If that private eye can't see
Well, he better bring that ring to me

I said, "yeah, bo diddley, yeah"
(Yeah, bo diddley, yeah)
"Yeah, bo diddley, huh"
(Yeah, bo diddley, hey, yeah, etc.)

I said, "why'd ya come to my house
On black jack road
Take my baby away from home
Where'd you go or where you been
Up your house and gone again

I said, "bo diddley, bo diddley
Have you heard?
(Hey, bo diddley)
My pretty baby, kim
She was a bird"
(Hey, bo diddley)
I said, "yeah, bo diddley, yeah"
(Yeah, bo diddley, yeah)
"Yeah, bo diddley, yeah, huh"
(Yeah, bo diddley, yeah)
Yeah...child.....yeah

I said, "bo diddley's a gunslinger"
(Bo diddley's a gunslinger)
"Bo diddley's a gunslinger"
(Bo diddley's a gunslinger)

Bo diddley's a gunslinger
