*Electronicish Vocal Interlude*

Oh Black Betty, bambalam

*Electronic Vocal Interlude*

Monday she got me arrested,

On Tuesday up in jail,

Wednesday my trail was attested,

Thursday she posted my bail,

Friday we went walking,

Saturday I was outta my door,

On Sunday we was talkin,

Back on Monday she pawned all my clothes

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

Shes from Birmingham, bambalam

Way down in Alabama, bambalam

The way she shake that thing, bambalam

Oh she make me sing, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

She really get me high, bambalam

You know thats no lie, bambalam

Shes so rock steady, bambalam

Oh shes always ready, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

Whoa Black Betty, bambalam

*Electronic Vocal Interlude*

Whooooa Black Betty!
