Betty told Dupree, she wanted a diamond ring
Betty told Dupree, she wanted a diamond ring
He says, yes oh yes my love l'Il get you most anything
Then he got himself a pistol, and it was a forty four
Then he got himself a pistol, and it was a forty four
Well you know to get that diamond ring he had to rob a jewellery store
He caught a passenger and beat his way to Chicago
You know Dupree caught a passenger and beat his way into Chicago
Don't you know little better, she hung her head and cried, said I won't see Dupree no more
But the police they caught him, carried him back to Atlanta jail
But the police they caught him, carried him back to Atlanta jail
Who did they send for but little Betty, saying please come and go my bail
She went to the jailhouse, his face she could not see
She went to the jailhouse, his face she could not see
Where she said please Mr Jailer, won't you give him this note for me
This is how it read:
I was there to see you but I could not see your face
I was there to see you but I could not see your face
Well Although you know I love you, but I just can't take your place
