Bo Diddley just buy his baby diamond ring If that diamond ring don't shine He gonna take it to a private eye If that private eye can't see He'd better not take the ring a-from me Bo Diddley caught a nanny goat To make his pretty baby a Sunday coat Bo Diddley caught a bear cat To make his pretty baby a Sunday hat Mojo come to my house wi' black cat bone A-take my baby away from home Up in that fo' door a-where you been? Up yo' house and gone again Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley have you heard? My pretty baby says she wants a bird.

“Bo Diddley” introduziu o ritmo que ficou conhecido como “batida Bo Diddley”, amplamente imitado por músicos posteriores.
A canção liderou a Billboard R&B por duas semanas em 1955, marcando um dos primeiros grandes sucessos de Bo Diddley.
Ela integra diversas compilações do artista, como o álbum *Bo Diddley* de 1958 e *His Best* de 1997.
A versão de Buddy Holly, lançada após sua morte, alcançou o quarto lugar nas paradas do Reino Unido.
