I'm going around the mountain charming Betsy Going around the mountain to leave If I never see you no more Do Lord remember me The first time I see charming Betsy She want everything that she see Last time I seen charming Betsy She's wearing the ball and chain I'm going around the mountain charming Betsy Going around the mountain to leave If I never see you no more Do Lord remember me I'm going around the mountain charming Betsy Going around the mountain to leave If I never see you no more Do Lord remember me I went down to Huntsville town I did not go to stay I just got there to do time To wear that ball and chain I'm going around the mountain charming Betsy Going around the mountain to leave If I never see you no more Do Lord remember me Yellow gal rides in an automobile Brown skin do the same Black gal rides in an old airship But she riding just the same I'm going around the mountain charming Betsy Going around the mountain to leave If I never see you no more Do Lord remember me
