Do you remember Sweet Betsy from Pike [00:00:00]
Crossed the big mountains with her lover Ike [00:00:04]
With two yoke of oxen and a big yaller dog[00:00:07]
A tall Shangai rooster and one spotted hog [00:00:11]
Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day[00:00:14]
They soon reached the desert where Betsy give out [00:00:20]
Down on the sand she lay rolling about [00:00:24]
Ike he gazed at her with sobs and with sighs [00:00:27]
"Who he get up Betsy [00:00:30]
You'll get sand in your eyes"[00:00:32]
Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day[00:00:34]
The Shanghai ran off and their cattle all died;[00:00:39]
The last piece of bacon That morning was fried;[00:00:43]
Ike got discouraged and Betsy got mad [00:00:47]
The dog wagged his tail and looked wonderfully sad [00:00:50]
Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day[00:00:53]
Long Ike and Sweet Betsy attended a dance;[00:00:59]
Ike wore a pair of his Pike County pants;[00:01:02]
Sweet Betsy was dressed up in ribbons and rings;[00:01:06]
Ike "You're an angel but where are your wings "[00:01:10]
Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day[00:01:13]
A miner come up says "will you dance with me "[00:01:18]
"I will you old hoss if you don't make too free;[00:01:22]
And i'll tell you the reason [00:01:25]
Do you want to know why doggone you[00:01:27]
I'm chock full of strong alkali "[00:01:29]
Hoodle dang fol-de-die-do hoodle dang fol-de-day[00:01:32]
