Beach Boys – Ballad Of Ole Betsy Lyrics

Betsy Betsy

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

With some she traveled fast, with others it was slow
Betsys seen them all, shed seen them come and go
She must have had some favorites before I finally met her

And now that shes all mine, theyd 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 shes solid gold
And I just cant hold the tears back cause Betsys growing old
