41.Betty and Dupree

Lyricist:Chuck Willis

Betty told Dupree she wanna diamond ring
Betty told Dupree she wanna diamond ring
Dupree told Betty, â½Baby, I'll buy you anythingâ

Dupree told Betty, â½Baby, won't you be my wifeâ
Dupree told Betty, â½Baby, won't you be my wifeâ
She said, 'I know, I'm yours, I'm yours for the rest of my life'

Put your arms around me, baby, honey, like a circle 'round the
sun
Put your arms around me, baby, like a circle 'round the sun
Put your big strong arms around my waist, let it slide down on
the one

Love me, baby, love me all to the bone
Won't you love me, baby, honey, love me deep down in my bones
I will love you so good that you can't stand to leave me alone

Kiss me, baby, ooh, right on my ruby lips
Won't you kiss me, baby, honey, on my ruby lips
Put your big strong arms around my waist and let it slide down
on my hips

Yeah, yeah, Betty told Dupree, she wanna diamond ring
Betty told Dupree, she wanna diamond ring
Oh, and Dupree said, â½Betty, oh, I'm gonna buy you anythingâ
