Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Black Betty had a child (bam-ba-lam)
The damn thing gone wild (bam-ba-lam)
Said it weren't none of mine (bam-ba-lam)
The damn thing gone blind (bam-ba-lam)
I said oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)

Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
She really gets me high (bam-ba-lam)
You know that's no lie (bam-ba-lam)
She's so rock steady (bam-ba-lam)
And she's always ready (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)

Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
She's from Birmingham (bam-ba-lam)
Way down in Alabam' (bam-ba-lam)
Well, she's shakin' that thing (bam-ba-lam)
Boy, she makes me sing (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)

Black Betty (version courte)

Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Black Betty avait un enfant (bam-ba-lam)
La chose est devenue folle (bam-ba-lam)
Elle n'était pas à moi (bam-ba-lam)
La chose est devenue aveugle (bam-ba-lam)
J'ai dit oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)

Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Elle me fait vraiment planer (bam-ba-lam)
Tu sais que ce n'est pas un mensonge (bam-ba-lam)
Elle est tellement stable (bam-ba-lam)
Et elle est toujours prête (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)

Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Elle vient de Birmingham (bam-ba-lam)
Tout en bas dans l'Alabama (bam-ba-lam)
Eh bien, elle secoue cette chose (bam-ba-lam)
Mec, elle me fait chanter (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
Oh, Black Betty (bam-ba-lam)
