So slender and pale in your
All decked out in ruffles an
You're just like an angel,
only where are your wings?
Let's change her name and
where cares will never find us
We'll hitch our dreams to a 20 -mule team
and leave the trail behind us
Starch -collared Parson lives
He'd hitch us right up, but
The old circuit rider will be just as nice
He'll splice for half price
and bring his own bag of rice
where prairie dogs won't mind us
With nothing to eat but buffalo meat,
no cares will ever find us
Oh, Betsy, do tell what a swell howdy -do
will buy presents for you
we'll have your old Aunt Aggie
you're the sweetest little Betsy
where cares will never find us
So slender and pale in your
All decked out in ruffles
You're just like an angel on deck
Where are your wings, oh Betsy?
Let's change your name and
Where cares will never find us,
There's love in them hills far away,
Whoopee tee, whoopee tee,
