[Verse 1] [C]Ban[F]g goes old Betsy, my only gun is [C]Betsy. I can travel far and wide with Betsy by my side. The only time I draw my gun, believe [F]me it is [C]not in fun. I [F]shoot it for defend[C]ing me. I shoot for life and liberty. [F]Bang goes old Betsy, my one and only Bet[C]sy I can travel far and wide with Betsy by my side One day I went away from town, I [F]aimed at Grin [C]a wildcat down the beast [F]And I began to [C]stare, it was a growling grizzly bark [F]Bang went old Betsy, my one and only [C]Betsy I can travel far and wide with Betsy by my side I was a -gettin' whippin' sticks, I [F]got myself in[C]to a fix The [F]snow was frozen [C]on the ground, a pack of hungry wolves came round [F]Bang went old Betsy, my one and only [C]Betsy I can travel far and wide with Betsy by my side When I was riding through the woods to [F]trade off skins for [C]bought goods [F]Forty arrows [C]hit a tree and I knew the Sioux were out for me [F]Bang went old Betsy, my one and only [C]Betsy I can travel far and wide with Betsy by my side The only time I draw my gun, believe [F]me, it is [C]not in fun I [F]shoot it for defend[C]ing me, I shoot for life and liberty [F]Bang goes old Betsy, my only gun is [C]Betsy, I can travel far and wide with Betsy by my side.
