I was slipping and sliding with a long tall Sally

Peeking and a hiding, duck back in the alley

Don't want to rip it up, don't want to dance with Annie

I've got a brand new lover name is Short Fat Fannie


One day while I was visiting at Heart Break Hotel

That's where I met Fannie and she sure looked swell

I told her that I loved her and I'd never leave

She put her arms around me, gave me fever


She's my tutti fruity, I love the child so

She watch me like a hound dog everywhere I go

Whenever I'm around her I'm on my p's and q's

She might step on my blue suede shoes


Well at a honky tonk party just the other night

Fannie got jealous and she started a fight

At the club I was dancing with Mary Lou

I had to call Jim Dandy to the rescue


Short Fat Fannie she's my hearts 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
