Oh,Do you remember |
| [00:05.06] |
Sweet Betsy from Pike, |
| [00:07.07] |
Who crossed the wide prairies |
| [00:08.97] |
With her husband,Ike, |
| [00:10.73] |
With two yoke of oxen |
| [00:12.58] |
And one spotted hog |
| [00:14.59] |
A tall Shanghai rooster |
| [00:16.35] |
And an old yeller dog? |
| [00:18.45] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
| [00:21.66] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
| [00:26.93] |
The alkali desert was burning and bare |
| [00:33.29] |
And Ike cried in fear, |
| [00:35.00] |
"We are lost,I declare! |
| [00:36.25] |
My dear old Pike County, |
| [00:38.72] |
I'll go back to you." |
| [00:40.42] |
Said Betsy,"You'll go by yourself,If you do." |
| [00:44.28] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
| [00:47.89] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
| [00:54.00] |
They swam the wide rivers |
| [00:55.26] |
And crossed the tall peaks |
| [00:56.65] |
They camped on the prairie |
| [00:59.21] |
For weeks upon weeks |
| [01:01.08] |
They fought with the Indians |
| [01:02.88] |
With musket and ball |
| [01:04.84] |
And reached California |
| [01:06.64] |
In spite of it all |
| [01:08.54] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
| [01:12.10] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
| [01:15.91] |
Sing toorali,oorali,oorali ay |
