BETTY
JEAN
Two cars pullin' up ahead on my right
Goin' up the highway gonna see my Betty Jean
She got eyes like a jack rabbit
Staring dead in my high beams
Well over in the woods in a hail door light
Two Red Hills boys in a bare-knuckle fight
Stretched out on the hood of my GTO
She's filin' her nails shoutin', "Go, Bobby, go!"
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean
Well over in the woods in a hail door light
Two Red Hills boys in a bare-knuckle fight
Stretched out on the hood of my GTO
She's filin' her nails shoutin', "Go, Bobby, go!"
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean
Honey you're cute but you sure are mean
Ooh, Betty Jean
Well she jumped in that car
We started drivin' around
She turned that radio dial
Threw her head back 'n' sound
Goin' up the highway, she was givin' me the itch
She put her hand on my leg
I drove us in a drainage ditch
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean
Ooh, Betty Jean
Well she jumped in that car
We started drivin' around
She turned that radio dial
Threw her head back 'n' sound
Goin' up the highway, she was givin' me the itch
She put her hand on my leg
I drove us in a drainage ditch
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean
Honey you're cute but you sure are mean
Ooh, Betty Jean
Ooh, Betty Jean
Next thing I knew, I was runnin' through the crowd
I swore her my love forever, she was laughin' out loud
We were married in the Spring out on 531
Had 15 kids and I hate every single one
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean
Honey you're cute but you sure are mean
Ooh, Betty Jean
Ooh, Betty Jean
BETTY JEAN
Carretera de Black Mellon en una suave noche oscura
Dos coches adelantándose en cabeza a mi derecha
Acelerando por la autopista para ver a mi Betty Jean
Tiene la mirada de una liebre
A punto de morir ante mis faros
Entre los bosques se acerca una granizada
Dos chicos de Red Hills luchan a puñetazos
Alargada sobre el capó de mi GTO
Ella se lima las uñas gritando: “¡Vamos Bobby,
vamos!”
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty
Jean
Cariño eres preciosa pero sin duda peligrosa
Oooh, Betty Jean
Se subió en aquel coche
Y empezamos a conducir
Giró el dial de la radio
Moviéndose al ritmo del sonido
Acelerando por la autopista, ella me manoseaba
Puso su mano en mi pierna
Y nos empotré en una zanja
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean,
Betty Jean
Cariño eres preciosa pero sin duda peligrosa
Oooh, Betty Jean
Lo siguiente que recuerdo, corriendo entre la
multitud
Le juré mi amor eterno, mientras se reía a
carcajadas
Nos casamos en primavera al salir de la 531
Tuvimos 15 hijos y los odio a todos y cada uno
Betty Jean, Betty Jean, Betty Jean,
Betty Jean
Cariño eres preciosa pero sin duda peligrosa
Oooh, Betty Jean
Outtake de
Born In The USA de 1982-1983. Aclarar que se trata de una canción diferente a
Betty Jean de Chuck Berry y versionada por Bruce. Se rumorea que fue probada en
un soundcheck el 23 de marzo de 1988 en el Omni, Atlanta, GA. La letra parece
una evolución de Preacher’s Daughter. También comparte algún verso con Delivery
Man.
