Lyrics Listen Betty (I'm Singing Your Song) - Dave Dudley
A
friend
and
I
made
one
shot
run
to
Knoxville
one
day
We
got
the
apple
pie
and
coffee
hungries
on
the
way
We
pulled
into
a
little
truckstop
just
outside
of
town
Pretty
soon
the
waitress
came
around
She
said
my
name
is
Betty
and
I'd
know
you
anywhere
I'd
like
to
have
a
minute
of
your
time
if
you
don't
care
Would
you
sing
a
song
about
me
and
the
waitresses
you've
met
About
the
broken
promises
we
get
Now
listen
Betty
I'm
singing
your
song
about
the
drivers
that
have
done
you
wrong
All
I
wanna
do
is
lay
the
blame
where
it
belongs
listen
Betty
I'm
singing
your
song
[ Piano
]
There's
a
broken
heart
for
every
truckstop
on
the
right
There's
a
lonesome
driver
for
each
passing
set
of
lights
Now
I
can't
tell
you
how
to
love
or
tell
you
how
to
live
all
I
can
do
is
tell
it
like
it
is
There's
a
million
waitresses
all
up
and
down
the
line
I've
seen
some
that
were
laughin'
and
I've
seen
some
that
were
cryin'
I've
left
some
that
were
happy
and
I've
left
some
that
were
blue
If
you're
a
waitress
here's
a
song
for
you
Now
listen
Betty...
[ Piano
]
The
highway
is
a
part
of
hell
that
never
caught
on
fire
The
driver
is
the
kinda
man
that
devil
wouldn't
hire
That's
what
you're
sayin'
Betty
but
you
can't
stand
the
heat
Quit
that
job
and
let
those
drivers
be
Now
listen
Betty...
Now
listen
Betty...
