Johnny Bond - Barrel House Blues lyrics
I was up in the Klondike, digging for gold Braving the storms in the shivering cold When I stepped in a bar just to get myself warm Not thinking nothing about feminine charm When I heard the piano playing the honky tonk blues Well I gandered around to have me a look And right there she sat just like in a book Her hair was all red and so were her lips She was covered in diamonds from shoulders to hips It was Barrel house Betsy my gal from Baltimore town Well I nodded hello she just rolled her eyes And Pounded on the keys and winked at some guys So I wondered across to where she was sitting I says “I know you cause I ain’t forgetting” You’re Barrel house Betsy my gal from Baltimore Town Well she kept right on playing and soon she looked up She picked up her glass and took it we sup She said “Yes I’m the girl you jilted before I followed you here to settle the score Yes I’m Barrel House Betsy the Flame of Baltimore town Well the music was stopped and everyone stared As she looked at me her glassy eyes glared She held in her hand a 44 gun I froze the floor unable to run From Barrel House Betsy my gal from Baltimore Town Well that’s about all of my little yarn Cause I’m full of slugs from her shooting arm I’ll be in a wheel chair the rest of my life But I’m taking care of by my little wife I mean Barrel House Betsy my sweetie form ol Baltimore |
