Betty Baby

Betty's seen better days
She can't stand heat
She melts when it gets hot in summer
Not gonna let her lose her beat
Not gonna—

The poor thing's neck, it's out of whack
Well, she's pulling strings left and right
I know she's just a guitar, baby
I'ma never let her out of my sight

Might say, "Ooh, Betty baby
Why'd you break so soon?
Ooh, Betty baby
You know I didn't want anything but you
And if you been in the wars
I can sympathise, I been there before, sing
You Betty baby
You Betty baby
You Betty baby
Get better Betty baby now"

And when I get the dollars to spend
Well, I'ma take her straight down to set her right
She's my old golden gal now I got her
Wanna see her, gonna see her name in lights

You might say, "Ooh, Betty baby
Why'd you break so soon?
Ooh, Betty baby
You know I didn't want anything but you
And if you been in the wars
I can sympathise, I been there before, sing
You Betty baby
You Betty baby
You Betty baby
Get better Betty baby now"

Ooh, Betty baby
Why'd you break so soon?
Why'd you break, why'd you break so soon?
Ooh, Betty baby
You know I didn't want anything but you
And if you been in the wars
I can sympathise, I been there before, said
You Betty baby
You Betty baby
You Betty baby
Get better Betty baby now
