Lyrics:

Whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
Black betty had a child (bam-ba-lam)
the damn thing gone wild (bam-ba-lam)
she said, 'i'm worryin' outta mind' (bam-ba-lam)
the damn thing gone blind (bam-ba-lam)
i said oh, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)



















Oh, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
She really gets me high (bam-ba-lam)
you know that's no lie (bam-ba-lam)
she's so rock steady (bam-ba-lam)
and she's always ready (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
















Whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
She's from birmingham (bam-ba-lam)
way down in alabam' (bam-ba-lam)
well, she's shakin' that thing (bam-ba-lam)
boy, she makes me sing (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-ba-lam)
whoa, black betty
bam-ba-lam
