Sample clip (Coming Soon)

I once met a blonde  named Betty

When the moon was blue…. and so was I

Betty was a baker …..she made biscuits

Better than any you could buy

Folks would chit and chatter--- hey….what’s in Betty’s batter

Betty’s reply would be

It wouldn’t be fair---- for me to share --- my secret recipe

CHORUS

You see

I’m Betty ,  I’m a bakin’…..Biscuits with butter

And  the butter that I buy ain’t bitter

If I put some  bitter butter in my batter……It will make my batter bitter

But a bit of better butter……That will make my batter better

So I buy  butter………Better than some  bitter butter

Put it in my batter and my batter won’t be bitter

So  it’s best to buy  better  butter.

Well butter got the best of Betty…….

They found poor Betty dead

It didn’t seem to matter……All they wanted was her batter

But it was all in Betty’ head

Boo hoo, Boo hoo ,bye bye Betty……

They were as petty…..as people could be

They said it isn’t t fair---  we’ll never  share--- her secret recipe

 They heard

CHORUS

I guess I forgot to tell you……Never trust a man in bed

Betty never used Butter……She used bacon fat  instead

But cross my heart and hope to die……..I’ll never give her secret away

It wouldn’t  be fair to Betty…….But you can bet  your butt its  fair to say

Hey, I'm Cornel Sanders…… You’re gonna  love MY biscuits

And the butter that I buy ain’t  bitter

If I put  some bitter butter in my batter

It will make my  batter bitter

But a bit of better butter

That will make my batter better

So I buy butter

Better than some  bitter butter

I put it in my batter and my batter won’t be bitter….so it’s best to buy  better butter

 

Songwriting Inspiration:

My 40 aunts and uncles loved to go to the casino. Once a month, I would rent a bus and take them to Atlantic City or to the Mohegan Sun Thank you Auntie Gloria for your inspiration to my lyrics
