Betty Bones

It happened late one summer night

She met a drifter with demon's eyes

The youg and pretty, betty jones

He took her out behind the alley

Carved away all of her beauty

Now they call her betty bones

Now take a look at miss betty bones

The flesh ripped clean from her face is all gone

Taken away by a murderous knife

Out back behind the alley in the pale moonlight

She was kicking and screaming begging for death

As he hacked off her ears but he wasn't done yet

Took a leg and an arm skinned the girl alive

And she cried, oh she cried

Oh my miss betty bones

Still alive with the skin all gone

Under the moonlight she cries

Please just leave'er alone

That's betty bones

He took her flesh but he left her alive

Cut her tongue and a pretty green eye

No one was around to hear her cries

In the night, oh she cried

Oh my miss betty bones

Still alive with the skin all gone

Under the moonlight she cries

Please just leave'er alone

That's betty bones

Oh betty jones

Don't you open your eye

Well she cried into the night

Oh the girl fought for her life

Oh my miss betty bones

Still alive with the skin all gone

Under the moonlight she cries

Please just leave'er alone

That's betty bones

Oh poor miss betty bones

Left for dead by the side of the road

Under the moonlight she lies

Please just leave'er alone

That's betty bones

That's betty bones

That's betty bones

Oh betty!
