#1.
I was slippin and a slidin with Long Tall Sally,
Peepin and a-hidin duckin back in the alley.
Don t wanna Rip It Up, don t wanna dance with Annie,
I got a brand new lover named Short Fat Fannie.
#2.
One day while I was busy in the Heartbreak Hotel.
That s where I met Fannie and she sure looked swell.
I told her that I loved her, I d never leave her..
She put her arms around me..gave me Fever.
CHORUS:
She s my Tutti-Fruitti, I love the child so..
she watch me like a Hound Dog everywhere I go.
Whenever I m around I m on my P s and Q s..
She might step on my Blue Suede Shoes.
#3.
Well, at a honky-tonk party just the other night,
Fannie got jealous and she started a fight.
Because I was dancin with Mary Lou,
I had to call Jim Dandy to the rescue.
#4.
Short Fat Fannie she s my heart s desire.
Short Fat Fannie sets my soul on fire.
On Monday we were married on Blueberry Hill,
now we re so happy and I love her still.
CHORUS:
She s my big bad Tutti-Fruitti, I love the child so..
she watch me like a Hound Dog everywhere I go.
Whenever I m around I m on my P s and Q s..
She might step on my Blue Suede Shoes.
#5.
Well, at a honky-tonk party just the other night,

Because I was dancin with Mary Lou,
I had to call Jim Dandy to the rescue.
