Gather round me, everybody
I'm gonna tell you a story
About Betty and Dupree
Betty told Dupree
I want a diamond ring
Lord, Betty told Dupree
I want a diamond ring
Dupree told Betty
I will buy you anything
Dupree aked Betty
Girl, will you be my wife
Dupree aked Betty
Girl, will you be my wife
If I buy you that ring
You're mine the rest of your life
Yes, baby
Lord, Betty told Dupree
Yes, I will be your wife
You know Betty told Dupree
Baby, I will be your wife
He said, you will, pretty baby
I'm yours the rest of my life
