Betty Lyrics

If you heat up honey

In a cast-iron skillet

If you boil some coffee

Take my old cup and fill it

What you'll have, and what you'll hold

Is a helping of her and she don't grow cold

Betty, keep the burner on

While I'm gone, while I'm gone

I've been thinking of leaving

But so far I ain't leaving

You got me staying too long

Betty, keep the fire turned on

Why'd I get it in my head, this notion

Now the river's frozen

And I can't get clean across

Come back around when the raft's not lost

If you heat up honey

In a cast-iron skillet

If you boil some coffee

Stir it up but don't spill it

What you'll have, and what you'll hold

Is a helping of her and she don't grow cold
