Lyrics:

Deep in the dark jungles of Africa



There is a goddess the natives call Bet-I-Cha







Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha



(Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha)



It's a story that's told of a maid that never will fade



The tale of Bet-I-Cha



(Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha)



Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha



She's the song of delight in the night the natives will sing to you



Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha



The wise men say she's a spirit



Whose lover left long ago



But others say she's the music



Of lover's hearts all aglow



She may be moonlight so bright



Or soft winds sighin' at night



No matter where you may find her



She's one part close to your heart







Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha



(Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha, Bet-I-Cha)



It's a story that's told of a maid that never will fade



The tale of Bet-I-Cha







They sing of Bet-I-Cha



They sing of Bet-I-Cha



They sing of Bet-I-Cha



They sing of Bet-I-Cha
