Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend, they had a big fight

She found out what everybody knew

Too many cooks spoil the stew

She don't care what nobody thinks

She's gonna be bad 'til the whole town stinks

Betty's bein' bad, Betty's bein' bad

Bad, bad, bad, she's out bein' bad

Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend, they had a big fight

Well, she went home when she found out

Said, "Pack your bags, I want you out"

Her boyfriend thought she was talking jive

'Til he saw her standing with a .45

A .45's quicker than 409

Betty cleaned house for the very last time

Betty's bein' bad, Betty's bein' bad

Bad, bad, bad, she's out bein' bad

Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend, they had a big fight

Now, if you go out and you see Betty

Don't scream and shout, unless you're ready

You are ready to rock, ready to roll

'Til it all freezes over and you catch a cold

Betty's not mad, she's just getting even

Betty's bein' bad, it's her way of leaving

Betty's bein' bad, Betty's bein' bad

Bad, bad, bad, she's out bein' bad

Betty's out bein' bad tonight

Betty and her boyfriend, they had a big fight

Bye, bye, Betty, good-bye

Bye, bye, Betty, good-bye

Bye, bye, bye, Betty, good-bye
