The girl i love is waiting
Where the delta kisses the sea
The pine trees sway with the evening tide
That’s where she’s waiting for me

Her smile’s as soft as a velvet rose
Her heart’s as gay as champagne
Her hair is as black as a raven
My beautiful betty lorraine

Her eyes they shine like the morning star
Her lips are as warm as the rain
I found i loved i lost my heart
To beautiful betty lorraine
