Jelly Roll Lyrics - Nina Simone

Oh yeah, yeah 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black, ain't that fine, yeah 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine. 

Sunday after meetings and Saturday with a man 

Sweet potato pie when you eat from the pan 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine 

Ain't that bad and ain't that black and ain't that fine. 

Can you dig it? 

Dancing the latest dance and eating ribs and tips 

Digging all the new sounds and drinking gin in sips 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine, baby 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black, ain't that fine 

I could go for a ride on your sweet jelly roll 

But I wouldn't give nothing for my juicy, juicy soul.

I could go for a ride on your sweet jelly roll 

But I wouldn't give nothing for my juicy, juicy soul 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine 

Ain't that bad and ain't that black and ain't that fine 

Let's go, let's go, let's go.

To tie up my do right (?) and tighten up my 'fro 

Wrapping myself in black and still I shine and glow 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine 

Ain't that bad, ain't that black and ain't that fine.
