Betty has always lived her life real close to the renaissance fair
She's not a fan of the dark ages but she likes to know they're there
They're there
Now all her life she'd watch from windows as cars drove round outside
With her Thermostat up and her "Frasier" mug she had the perfect place to hide
To Hide
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
I just hope you'll try
Betty lives off the garden Sam had started years before
They grew their own tomatoes though he liked the store-bought more
More
And Betty sees no reason to keep dreaming all alone
Cause Sam has gone and left her life but he hasn't left her home
Her Home
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
I just hope you'll try
I know he's gone the days are long
Seems the sun don't shine so bright
And yes Betty he took you for granted,
But he didn't take your life
Your life
Betty won't you live your life?
Betty won't you live your life?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
Betty won't you leave your house tonight?
I just hope you'll try
