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
