The Holy Modal Rounders - The Cold Roll lyrics

Your jelly roll ain't what it was When I met you back in '31 Time was home I'd come And your jellyroll was yum yum yum You used to serve it hot any time of day But now when you serve it, it's cold as clay I like my jelly, I like my jellyroll But how can I like it when you serve it cold I like that jellyroll, in the morning it is cold I like my jellyroll, in the morning it is cold But it's been warmer than my toes, it's froze Well, go and tell me Mama Have you lost your cookbook? On how you bake jellyroll or am I mistook Now ain't this really the cold sweet potato pie You know that the tongue of the connoisseur don't lie What's the matter with this here jelly roll Is the oven broke or out of control I'm losin' sleep and hungry, can't you see? I do believe you lost your recipe I like that jellyroll, in the morning it is cold I like that jellyroll, in the morning it is cold But it's much colder than my nose, it's just froze Well, I'm gonna take you, baby, to the Turkish bath To put some heat in your yas, yas, yas We'll come on home and start to bake Some of that good juicy, jelly roll cake If that don't work, I got the fix-it kit comin' Somethin's probably wrong with your gut plumbin' I hope I can fix it 'cause as you can see Your jelly roll ain't what it used to be
