Betty Jo, you made it plain
When first you held me near.
Even though you caused me pain,
You were all the world to me.

We made love; we had such fun.
Many fine times went by us.
Now it's all so hazy
And a little bit crazy.

Betty Jo, my heart's on fire;
I don't need this crying.
The next time you see me,
The back seat of a taxi's where I'll be.

Betty called me in to say goodnight,
Much to my relief and pure delight.
I think that was my big love scene
I do belive her engine run all right.

Betty said: get ready, the time has come.
I was young and the good life had begun.
And with the dawn, the child in me was gone,
But it made a man out of me that night.

Betty made my clothes and sewed my jeans,
listened to my songs and foolish schemes.
I think the way she got to me
Was aimed like a laser beam right to the soul.

Betty, my true love, do what you do tonight.
Where she goes I hope she knows she's right.
The worst demand and the best of times,
She was never the kind to kick and b____ and fight.

Betty called me in to say goodnight,
Much to my relief and pure delight.
And with the dawn, the child in me was gone,
But it made a man out of me that night.

I think that was my big love scene
I do believe her engine run all right.
