Topic: Gotta Be Jelly
Something I remember my dad saying growing up. I figured there had to be a song like this, but I couldn't find it....so I wrote this one the other day. Fun little song in my opinion.
Gotta Be Jelly By Jeff Gilpin
June 20, 2013
[G]Bopping down the city street
Knowing smile for every[D]one she [G]meet
[G]Turning heads as she goes by
Every now and then you hear a [D]my oh [G]my
My its [C]gotta be jelly
[G]Gotta be jelly
[D]Gotta be jelly cause [C]jam don’t shake like [G]that [D]
[G]Jam don’t wobble jam don’t shake
Jam don’t quiver and [D]it don’t [G]quake
[G]Jam just sits there with its fruit smelly
And I reach right by it cause I [D]gotta have my [G]jelly
Yeah Its [C]Gotta be jelly
[G]Gotta be jelly
[D]Gotta be jelly cause [C]jam don’t shake like [G]that [D]
[G]When I eat my jelly I think of that girl
Bopping as she’s walking like a [D]gift to the [G]world
I [G]lay it on thick cause it taste so good
Like that hot girl bopping in my [D]neighbor[G]hood
Yeah Its [C]Gotta be jelly
[G]Gotta be jelly
[D]Gotta be jelly cause [C]jam don’t shake like [G]that
Well you can [G]take your fruit spreads and your preserve
All those things just [D]get on my [G]nerves
[G]Forget all that stuff that they sell on the telly
Cause as for me I [D]gotta have my [G]jelly
Yeah Its[C] Gotta be jelly
[G]Gotta be jelly
[D]Gotta be jelly cause [C]jam don’t shake like [G]that [D]
[G]Like that girl bopping down the city street
Knowing smile for every[D]one she [G]meet
[G]Turning heads as she goes by
Every now and then you here a [D]oh my [G]my
Yeah that’s [C]Gotta be jelly
[G]Gotta be jelly
[D]Gotta be jelly cause [C]jam don’t shake like [G]that
