lyrics

Betty Beat the Devil

She slinks along the alleys of this two-bit one-horse town
A lady of scorn and derision but she's nobody's clown
She's taken on the best they've had and laid those suckers flat
In a car or in a bar or on a wrestling mat

(Bridge)
Last night she had her hands full
Pardon tunge in cheek
Last night she almost went down
To that pitchforked freak

(Chorus)
Betty beat the devil 
Last night!
Betty beat the devil
It was a fight!
Betty beat the devil
No pretend!
But - she - do - it again?......

She stumbles down the sidewalk just a little worse for wear
Her shoulders bruised, her lips are blue, her stockings full of tears
She don't want no re-match she's lucky to be alive
She won by split decision and that ain't no trumped up jive

(Bridge)
Last night she had her hands full
Pardon tunge in cheek
Last night she almost went down
To that pitchforked freak

(Chorus)
Betty beat the devil 
Last night!
Betty beat the devil
It was a fight!
Betty beat the devil
No pretend!
But - she - do - it again?......
