Ballad of Ole Betsy |
She was born in '32, and was she ever pretty |
She rode a freight train west, all the way from Detroit city |
Betsy’s seen more places than I’ll ever hope to see |
Betsy’s been more loyal than any friend could be |
With some she traveled fast, with others it was slow |
Betsy’s seen them all, she’d seen them come and go |
She must have had some favorites before I finally met her |
And now that she’s all mine, they’d 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 she’s solid gold |
And I just can’t hold the tears back |
Cause Betsy’s growing old |
