Have you heard the news
it's all over town
If you ain't heard it boys
you'd better sit down
I got the story here
it's hot off the press
Brace yourself now
and take a deep breath
Grab a hold
of something
hold on tight
Betty Lou's
gettin' out tonight
First heard the rumour
down on 12th and Main
The poor druggist
he was going insane
His stuff was selling out
like never before
He finally had to up
and close the store
All the boys were
getting ready to fight
Betty Lou's
gettin' out tonight
Betty Lou's
gettin' out tonight
Betty Lou's
gettin' out tonight
She was bad
her momma got mad
But now her momma
says it's alright
All the boys are looking
ready and right
Betty Lou's
gettin' out tonight
Betty Lou

And it's all true
What do you think

Betty Lou's

She was bad

But now her momma

All the boys are looking

Betty Lou's

Grab a hold
