Looking for the words to a song that starts "Takes a rocking horse to rock, takes a jelly roll to to roll, takes the man I love to satisfy my soul, because I'm jealous, Jealouse haearted me, I said I;m jealous, jealous as I can be." So then what? Also who sang it?

Thanks in advance.

Laura

Check the FAQ thread first though to see how to HTML-code the line breaks-- the line breaks you will see as you compose the post will not transfer without HTML codes.

Jealous Hearted Me

Takes a rocking chair to rock takes a rubber tire to roll
Takes the man I love to satisfy my soul
Because I'm jealous jealous hearted me
I said I'm jealous jealous as I can be

Got a stove in the kitchen and it bakes nice and brown
But I need a poppa to turn the damper down
Because I'm jealous jealous hearted me
I said I'm jealous jealous as I can be

You can have my money you can have my home
But for goodness sake women leave my man alone
Because I'm jealous jealous hearted me
I said I'm jealous jealous as I can be

Gonna buy me a bulldog to watch him while I sleep
To watch that man of mine on his midnight creep
Because I'm jealous jealous hearted me
I said I'm jealous jealous as I can be


Sorry, folks, no writing credits found.
(Now I'm gonna go turn the damper down...:)

Country Music Hall of Fame Series, from Hal Leonard Publishing, shows words and music by A. P. Carter. Has a few words different from above, and doesn't include the fourth verse. Says it was recorded by Minnie Pearl, one of her most popular songs.
