Blossom's Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My name is Blossom
I was raised in a lion's den
My name is Blossom
I was raised in a lion's den
My nightly occupation
Stealing other women's men
I'm an evil evil woman
But I want to do a man some good
I'm an evil evil woman
But I want to do a man some good
I'm Gina Lollobrigida
I ain't red riding-hood
If you don't like my peaches, baby
Why do you shake my tree?
If you don't like my peaches, baby
Why do you shake my tree?
Get out of my orchard, baby
Let my peach tree be
Now, don't you ooh skoodlia doo skoodlia dee
And I won't ya ya doo doo doo doo
If you don't ooh skoodlia doo skoodlia dee
Then I won't ya ya doo doo doo doo
So don't you ooh skoodlia doo skoodlia dee
And I won't ya ya doo doo doo doo
Some men like me 'cause I'm happy
Some think I'm snappy
Some call me honey
And some think I've got money
But Ray Brown told me
I was built for speed
You put 'em all together
Everything a good man needs
You put 'em all together
Everything a good man needs
