His name was Jack, her name’s Bea Lou
They loved each other and they both knew
They’d be together till the day that they die
Or the day they got caught running shine
She counted cash, he drove the car
“Thank you for your business” as he lights his cigar
Shaking hands with the devil himself
I guess people gotta drink even in hell
Betty Lou loves Jack Daniels
Lord, he’s hard to handle
When he throws it in drive
Betty Lou, I love you
Oh and I want to
Be with you for the rest of my life
It’s just me and you outrunning the boys in blue
And good moonshine
One night the cops were out thick
Betty told Jack
“Boy you better stick to the back roads
If you wanna make it out alive”
He told Betty, “Well I’ll be fine
I’ll take the main roads and I’ll make it in time
And besides my Nova’s the fastest car in town”
Betty Lou loves Jack Daniels
Lord, he’s hard to handle
When he throws it in drive
Betty Lou, I love you
Oh and I want to
Be with you for the rest of my life
It’s just me and you outrunning the boys in blue
And good moonshine
Betty Lou loves Jack Daniels
Lord, he’s hard to handle
When I throw it in drive
Betty Lou, I love you
Oh and I want to
Be with you for the rest of my life
It’s just me and you outrunning the boys in blue
Jack Daniels and Betty Lou
And good moonshine
Betty Lou stayed up late
Pacing the floor and cursing his name
She cried when she found out
The devil drives the fastest car in town
