Ballad Of Ole Betsy lyrics
Songwriters: Wilson, Brian; Christian, Roger;

Betsy Betsy

She was born in 32, and was she ever pretty
She rode a freight train west, all the way from Detroit City
Betsy s seen more places than I ll ever hope to see
Betsy s been more loyal than any friend could be

With some she traveled fast, with others it was slow
Betsy s seen them all, she d seen them come and go
She must have had some favorites before I finally met her
And now that she s all mine, they d better just forget her

Betsy was a lady and that she will remain
Betsy took some beatings but she never once complained

She had a classic beauty that everyone could see
I was the last to meet her, but she gave her life to me
She may be rusted iron, but to me she s solid gold
And I just can t hold the tears back cause Betsy s growing old
