Songtekst
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
Black Betty had a child, bam a lam.
The damn thing gone wild, bam a lam.
Said it weren't none o' mine, bam a lam.
The damn thing gone blind, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
She's from Birmingham, bam a lam.
Way down in Alabam', bam a lam.
She's so rock steady, bam a lam.
And she's always ready, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
She really gets me high, bam a lam.
You know that's no lie, bam a lam.
She really makes me sing, bam a lam.
When she shake that thing, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
Oh, Black Betty, bam a lam.
