Artist : Peter, paul & mary
Song : Betty dupree
Chorus:
Lie down betty, see what tomorrow brings
Lie down betty, see what tomorrow brings
May bring you sunshine, may bring you diamond
rings,
But if you lose your man it won’t bring you
anything.
Well betty told dupree, "buy me a diamond
ring", yeah
Betty told dupree, "buy me a diamond
ring"
And dupree told betty, "buy you most
anything"
(chorus)
So dupree took a pistol and he robbed that
jewelry store, yeah
I said dupree took a 38, he robbed that jewelry
store
You know he killed two policemen he left them
a-lying on the floor.
Well dupree in a taxi "take me to
baltimore"
Dupree in a taxi "take me to
baltimore"
And when he got to betty’s the sheriff was
a-waitin at the door.
You could hear him singin’... (chorus)
Now dupree’s in the death house callin’ out
betty’s name
Oh, dupree’s in the death house callin’ out
betty’s name
The guard said "dupree this note from your
baby just came."
"i came to see you but they wouldn’t let me
see your face"
"came to see you but they wouldn’t let me
see your face"
"i love you dupree, ain’t no one gonna take
your place!"
(chorus)
