—Blind Blake
There's a great big mystery,
And it sure is worryin' me.
It's the Diddie Wah Diddie,
It's the Diddie Wah Diddie.
I sure wish someone would tell me what
Diddie Wah Diddie means!
This little girl's about four feet four,
Come here to papa and give me some more.
It's the Diddie Wah Diddie,
It's the Diddie Wah Diddie.
I sure wish someone would tell me what
Diddie Wah Diddie means!
I went out and walked around,
Somebody yelled look who's in town.
Mister Diddie Wah Diddie,
Mister Diddie Wah Diddie.
I sure wish someone would tell me what
Diddie Wah Diddie means!
Ran to church put my hat on the seat,
Ladies said sugar daddy you sure is sweet!
Mister Diddie Wah Diddie,
Mister Diddie Wah Diddie.
I sure wish someone would tell me what
Diddie Wah Diddie means!
I said sister I'll soon be home,
Just give me that thing you said you own.
My Diddie Wah Diddie,
My Diddie Wah Diddie.
I wish somebody would tell me what
Diddie Wah Diddie means!
Man I got right out of church,
Because they talk about Diddie Wah Diddie too much.
It's the Diddie Wah Diddie,
It's the Diddie Wah Diddie.
I wish someone would tell me what
Diddie Wah Diddie means!
