He's the Jelly Roll Baker. He's got the best jelly roll in town Only man can bake jelly roll, with his damper down" She said, "Who taught you how, to bake good jelly roll?" I said, "Nobody Miss, it's just a gift from my soul To bake good jelly roll, crazy 'bout that good jelly roll Yes, I love your jelly, it's good to my weary soul" There was a man in the hospital, shot all full of holes The nurse left the man dyin', to go get some good jelly roll Says, "I've got to have my jelly, crazy 'bout that good jelly roll Yes, I'd rather let him lose his life, than to miss my good jelly roll" "Miss, can I put in my order for two weeks ahead?
