the new christy minstrels – betsy from pike lyrics
[verse 1]
oh, don’t you remember sweet betsy from pike?
who crossed the big mountains with her lover ike
with two yoke of oxen and one spotted hog
a tall shanghai rooster and an old yeller dog
[verse 2]
the injuns came down in a terrible horde
and betsy got scared they would scalp her adored
behind the front wagon wheel betsy did crawl
she fought off the injuns with musket and ball
[verse 3]
then betsy got up with a great deal of pain
and swore she’d go back to pike county again
then ike gave a sigh and they fondly embraced
she travelled along with his arm round her waist
[verse 4]
they passed the sierras through mountains of snow
’til old california was sighted below
see, betsy she hollered and ike gave a cheer
saying, “betsy my darling, i’m a made millionaire”
[verse 5]
oh, don’t you remember sweet betsy from pike?
who crossed the big mountains with her lover ike
with two yoke of oxen and one spotted hog
a tall shanghai rooster and an old yeller dog
