This is a cute song by James Taylor called “Jelly Man Kelly.” Kelly likes it! I’ll have whatever JT had when he wrote this.
Jelly Man Kelly
Words and Music by James Taylor
Here’s a song about Jelly Man Kelly
He loves jelly the most
Ah, but most of all
Jelly Man Kelly loves jelly on toast
And here’s the part about Jenny Mulhenny
She’s a fireman’s daughter
Ah, but most of all
Jenny Mulhenny loves to boil hot water
So Jenny put the kettle on
Jelly Man Kelly
Can he come home
Jenny
Can he come
Jenny put the kettle on
Jelly Man Kelly
Can he come home
Jenny
Can he come
(Chorus)
Oh, can he come home
Jenny
Can he come home
Jenny
Can he come
Oh, can he come home
Jenny
Can he come home
Jenny
Can he come
(Ad Lib)
(Chorus)
That’s the story about Jelly Man Kelly
He sure loves jelly
And maybe someday
You and me
Friend
We can have tea with him
(Chorus)
