BEACH BOYS - Ballad of Ole' Betsy lyrics

rate me

Betsybetsyahhhhh

She was born in '32and was she ever pretty

She rode a freight train westall the way from detroit city

Betsy's seen more places than I'll ever hope to see

Betsy's been more loyal than any friend could be

With some she traveled fastwith others it was slow

Betsy's seen them allshe'd seen them come and go

She must have had some others before I finally met her

And now that she's all minethey'd better just forget her

Betsy was a lady and that she will remain

Betsy took some beatings but she never once complained

She had a classic beauty that everyone could see

I was the last to meet herbut she gave her life to me

She may be rusted ironbut to me she's solid gold

And I just can't hold the tears back

'cause betsy's growing old
