Lyrics

Betty told Dupree she wanted a diamond ring Betty told Dupree she wanted a diamond ring Dupree said to Betty, "For you I'd do most anything" Well Dupree got a pistol, it was a .44 Dupree got a pistol, it was a .44 To get that ring for Betty, Dupree had to rob a jewelry store The police caught Dupree and they took him to the jail The police caught Dupree and they took him to the jail Dupree sent for Betty to come and go his bail Well Betty went to see him but his face she could not see Betty went to see him but his face she could not see She said to that warden, "Please take him a letter for me" Well I came to see you Dupree but I could not see your face I came to see you Dupree but I could not see your face I hate to tell you Dupree but another man took your place Well Betty told Dupree she wanted a diamond ring Betty told Dupree she wanted a diamond ring Dupree said to Betty, "For you I'd do most anything" Dupree said to Betty, "For you I'd do most anything"
