My Daddy Rocks Me - Sidney Bechet, Trixie Smith, Charlie Shavers

My man rocks me with one steady roll

There’s no slippin' when he once takes hold

I looked at the clock and the clock struck one

I said «Now Daddy, ain’t we got fun»

He kept rockin' with one steady roll

My man rocks me with one steady roll

There’s no slippin' when he once takes hold

I looked at the clock and the clock struck three

I said «Now Daddy, you a-killin' me!»

He kept rockin' with one steady roll

My man rocks me with one steady roll

There’s no slippin' when he once takes hold

I looked at the clock and the clock struck six

I said «Now Daddy, you know a lot of tricks!»

He kept rockin' with one steady roll

My man rocks me with one steady roll

There’s no slippin' when he once takes hold

I looked at the clock and the clock struck ten

I said «Glory!

Amen!»

He kept rockin' with one steady roll
