《Sweet Betsy from Pike》歌词

[00:00:00] Do you remember Sweet Betsy from Pike

[00:00:04] Crossed the big mountains with her lover Ike

[00:00:07] With two yoke of oxen and a big yaller dog

[00:00:11] A tall Shangai rooster and one spotted hog

[00:00:14] Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day

[00:00:20] They soon reached the desert where Betsy give out

[00:00:24] Down on the sand she lay rolling about

[00:00:27] Ike he gazed at her with sobs and with sighs

[00:00:30] "Who he get up Betsy

[00:00:32] You'll get sand in your eyes"

[00:00:34] Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day

[00:00:39] The Shanghai ran off and their cattle all died;

[00:00:43] The last piece of bacon That morning was fried;

[00:00:47] Ike got discouraged and Betsy got mad

[00:00:50] The dog wagged his tail and looked wonderfully sad

[00:00:53] Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day

[00:00:59] Long Ike and Sweet Betsy attended a dance;

[00:01:02] Ike wore a pair of his Pike County pants;

[00:01:06] Sweet Betsy was dressed up in ribbons and rings;

[00:01:10] Ike "You're an angel but where are your wings "

[00:01:13] Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day

[00:01:18] A miner come up says "will you dance with me "

[00:01:22] "I will you old hoss if you don't make too free;

[00:01:25] And i'll tell you the reason

[00:01:27] Do you want to know why doggone you

[00:01:29] I'm chock full of strong alkali "

[00:01:32] Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day
