Текст песни Sweet Betsy from Pike - Eddy Arnold
Oh do you remember sweet Betsy from Pike
She crossed the big mountain with her lover Ike
With two yoke of oxen and a big yeller dog
And a tall Shanghai rooster and one spottled hog
Didli ai di dai didl didli ai di dai dei
They soon reached the desert where Betsy gave out
And down in the sand she lay rollin' about
While Ike in great tears he looked on in surprise
Saying, "Betsy get up, you'll get sand in your eyes"
Didli ai di dai didl didli ai di dai dei
Betsy got up in a great deal of pain
She said she'd go back to Pike County again
But Ike gave a sigh then they fondly embraced
And they traveled along with his arm around her waist
(Ike and Sweet Betsy went out to a dance
And Ike wore a pair of his white goudy pants)
Betsy was dressed up in ribbons and rings
Said Ike, "You're an angel but where are your wings?"
Didli ai di dai didl didli ai di dai dei
A miner said Betsy will you dance with me
She answered, "I will if you won't make too free
I can't dance too hard do you want to know why"
Because I'm so full of that strong alkali"
Ike and sweet Betsy got married of course
But Ike was so jealous he gotta divorce
Then Betsy well satisfied said with a shout
"Goodbye forever I'm glad you've backed out"
Didli ai di dai didl didli ai di dai dei
