Betty Jean
Chuck Berry Lyrics
I love the way you talk
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Speaking little, saying a lot.
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
I love the way you walk
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Look like you're dancin when you're not.
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
I love the way you love
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Chorus:
Oh-oh-oh baby
(Sing the song Chuckie Boy)
I'm in love with you
(Sing the song Chuckie Boy)
Oh-oh-oh baby
(Sing the song Chuckie Boy)
I'm in love with you
(Sing the song Chuckie Boy)
Now tell me baby
(Sing the song Chuckie Boy)
Do you love me too?
2nd verse
Every time I knock-knock-knock
Oh yeah Betty Jean)
I hear you say "Come in."
Oh yeah Betty Jean)
My heart goes a-boom-boom
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Just to hold you again.
Oh yeah Betty Jean)
I hear bells ding-a-ling
Oh yeah Betty Jean)
'Cause you the living end
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
3rd verse!
I bet you wouldn't think a dance
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Could start a real romance
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
I bet you wouldn't think a kiss
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Could turn me on like this
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Well let me tell you how it was
(Oh yeah Betty Jean)
Yes it did, Yes it was

Now I do NOT claim to be a n expert. But I've been listening to Chuck Berry since 1979. And I have never heard some of the gems, such as this one, 'til good people starting making these posts on youtube. Thank you so much for posting. I had no idea that this ever existed.

I always felt this should've been released as a single 45, but sadly it was only an album track from his 1960 album, "Rockin' at the Hops".

Not to worry...I've listened to Chuck since 1957 and I didn't know this existed either.
