[Verse 2]
[Bb]Is it gray? No[C].
Is it brown? No.
Is it green? No.
Is [C]it white? No.
Well, who? [G]I'll tell you who
she [C]really [F]loves.
Now, Betty Blue [F]met [Bb]Charlie Black,
and ooh, [Gm]she l[C]ikes him too.
[F]Now, [C]green and white got such a friend
when they saw black [Bb]and blue.
Ooh, Betty Blue was full of [F]smiles
[Bb]at all the t[C]hings black said.
Why, you should have seen
young [Bb]brown [C]and [Bdim]green.
[G]The bot[C]h of them saw[F] red.
[Bb]Each night [C]they come [F]around
[Bb]to see what ribb[C]on she w[F]ill wear[Bb].
And [F]for [C]weeks and weeks,
[F]she's [Bb]only worn [G]the [C]black
one in her [F]hair.
Oh, [Bb]great.
And brown. And green. And [Bb]white.
[Gm]Are in an [C]awful [F]suit.
Cause [C]Betty's cracky,
Blackie's wacky,
Betty's wacky, over Blackie,
and the [F]boys are blue.
[C]You
