Look-a look-a yonder Well the sun done gone
The captain can't hold her The way I do now
Ada got a gold mine Way above her knees
The shiv (?) is golden Above her knees
Look-a look-a yonder Well the sun done gone
Wohoh, Black Betty, bam-e-lam Black Betty had a baby, bam-e-lam Damn thing was crazy, bam-e-lam Wohoh, Black Betty, bam-e-lam
