G D G did you ever hear tell of sweet betsy from pike , Em D who crossed the wide mountains with her lover ike , G C G two yoke of cattle , A large yeller dog , D G A tall shanghai rooster , and A one - spotted hog . singing too - ra - li - oo - ra - li - oo - ra - li - ay . they swam the wide rivers and crossed the tall peaks , and camped on the prairie for weeks upon weeks . starvation and cholera , hard work and slaughter - - they reached california ’spite of hell and high water . one evening quite early they camped on the platte , twas near by the road on A green shady flat . betsy , sore - footed , lay down to repose - - with wonder ike gazed on that pike county rose . out on the prairie one bright , starry night , they broke out the whiskey , and betsy got tight . she sang and she shouted and she danced o’er the plain , and she showed her bare arse to the whole wagon train . the injuns came down in A thundering horde , and betsy was scared they would scalp her adored . so under the wagon - bed betsy did crawl and she fought off the injuns with musket and ball . the wagon broke down with A terrible crash , and out on the prairie rolled all sorts of trash . A few little baby - clothes , done up with care , looked rather suspicious , but all on the square . they stopped at salt lake to inquire of the way , when brigham declared that sweet betsy should stay . betsy got frightened and ran like A deer , while brigham stood pawing the ground like A steer . the alkali desert was burning and bare , and isaac’s soul shrank from the death that lurked there . \"dear old pike county , i’ll go back to you\" - - says betsy , \"you’ll go by yourself if you do!\" they soon reached the desert , where betsy gave out , and down in the sand she lay rolling about . ike in great wonder looked on in surprise , saying , \"betsy , get up , you’ll get sand in your eyes . \" sweet betsy got up in A great deal of pain . she declared she’d go back to pike county again . ike gave A sigh , and they fondly embraced , and they traveled along with his arm round her waist . the shanghai ran off , and the cattle all died , that morning the last piece of bacon was fried . ike got discouraged , betsy got mad , the dog drooped his tail and looked wonderfully sad . they suddenly stopped on A very high hill , with wonder looked down upon old placerville . ike said to betsy , as he cast his eyes down , \"sweet betsy , my darling , we’ve got to hangtown . \" long ike and sweet betsy attended A dance . ike wore A pair of his pike county pants . betsy was covered with ribbons and rings . says ike , \"you’re an angel , but where is your wings?\" A miner said , \"betsy , will you dance with me?\" \"i will that , old hoss , if you don’t make too free . don’t dance me hard , do you want to know why? doggone you , i’m chock - full of strong alkali . \" this pike county couple got married , of course , but ike became jealous , and obtained A divorce . betsy , well - satisfied , said with A shout , \"goodby , you big lummox , i’m glad you backed out!\"
