Betty Lou bought a new pair of shoes
Betty Lou wah-ooh, wah-ooh, wah-ooh

Well, she cracked up over the solid fit
Walkin' down the street with her brand new kit

Betty Lou wah-ooh, wah-ooh, wah-ooh

Well, she's walkin' down the street, she met an undertaker
He tried to bury her new Shudebakers

Betty Lou, Betty Lou got a new pair of shoes
Betty Lou got a new pair of shoes
Betty Lou wah-ooh, wah-ooh, wah-ooh

She told him to go buy himself a rocket ship

Wooh, she's steppin' higher than a kite
Yeah, them shiny new Shudebakers she's got on
Whoa, dig them kits, yeah
