Lyrics and French translation Ram Jam - Black Betty

Black Betty

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

She said, "I'm worryin' outta mind," 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

Get it

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 thang, 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

Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Black Betty a eu un enfant, bam-ba-lam
Le satané gosse est devenu fou, bam-ba-lam

Elle a dit : "Je suis folle d'inquiétude", bam-ba-lam
Le satané gosse est devenu aveugle, bam-ba-lam
J'ai dit : "Oh, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam"

Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, 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 si rock steady, bam-ba-lam
Et elle est toujours prête, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam

Vas-y

Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Elle vient de Birmingham, bam-ba-lam
Tout là-bas en Alabama, bam-ba-lam

Eh bien, elle secoue son truc, bam-ba-lam
Mec, elle me fait chanter, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam
