Oh, oh, sweet jemima wontcha come out tonight?
G a7 d
The ground is so warm and the moon is so bright!

Jemima surrender, Im gonna give it to you,
Ill bring over my fender
And Ill play all night for you.
Theres a bird on my head
And his mouth wont talk,
You know he laughs just like a goose,
But looks like a hawk
Jemima, you know what Im tryn to say,
Meet me in front and well fly away.

You can change your name
You can find a new walk
You can change a lock, its all the same
You dont have to give out
If youll only give in
You can jump and shout
But cant you see girl, that Im bound to win

Jemima surrender, Im gonna give it to you,
Aint no pretender, gonna see my tattoo;
I hand you my rod and you hand me that line,
Thats what you do, now, we aint doing much fishin
Or drinkin any wine.

Sweet jemima, if I were king
Id fix you up with a diamond ring.
