Betty's Bein' Bad

Sawyer Brown · Greatest Hits [Capitol] [1990]

Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend, they had a big fight

She found out what everybody knew

Too many cooks spoil the stew.



She don't care

What nobody thinks

She's gonna be bad

'til the whole town stinks.



Chorus:

Betty's bein bad

Betty's bein bad

She's bein bad, bad, bad

She's out bein' bad

Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend

They had a big fight.



She went home when she found out

Said, Pack your bags, I want you out

Her boyfriend thought she was talking jive

'Til he saw her standing with a .45.



A .45's quicker than 409

Betty cleaned house

For the very last time.



Chorus:

Betty's bein bad

Betty's bein bad

She's bein bad, bad, bad

She's out bein' bad

Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend

They had a big fight.



Now if you go out and you see Betty

Don't scream and shout unless you are ready

You are ready to rock, ready to roll

'Til hell freezes over and you catch a cold.



Betty's not mad,

She's just getting even

Betty's bein' bad,

It's her way of leaving...
