Betty she don't act much like her sister
Betty says she'll take care of her self
Betty laughs at dirty jokes and whispers
Betty puts her words up on the shelf
Chorus
It's another day, (another day) It's another day another day
Betty bows her head said let it rain
Betty bought a souvenir of Elvis
Betty lights a fire to warm her feet
Betty says she's never been to Memphis
Betty folds and puts away the sheets
Chorus (2 times)
Betty drops a dime into the fountain
Betty drinks her whiskey all alone
Betty throws a rock down off the mountain
Betty knows there ain't no one at home
Chorus (2 times)
Cry down them tears of lead, did anybody hear what Betty said
Cry down them tears of lead, did anybody hear what Betty said
Betty reads a line about forgiveness
Betty fights to keep the wolves at bay
Betty sings and calls out for a witness
Betty wakes to face another day
Chorus (2 times)
Betty bows her head, said cry them tears of lead
Betty bows her head said let it rain
