(Verse 1)
Mean-lookin’ alley down at Broadway and Main (Un huh)
Been there before and she’ll be back there again (Okay)
She’s not a hooker, she’s just lookin’ for fun (Alright then)
She carries money and she carries a gun (Say what?)
It’s Broadway Betty with the sweet-lookin’ eyes (Ahhh)
Better watch out boys, it’s just a disguise
She got a mean streak
(Chorus)
She got a mean streak, Broadway Betty
Got a mean streak, that Broadway Betty
Such a mean streak, she’s always ready
With a mean streak, Broadway Betty
She got some lovin, “A-Number One”
But you don’t walk away
You run, run, run, yeah
(Verse 2)
Somebody told me that she used to be shy (Un hun)
She wouldn’t even look a man in the eyes (Aww)
And then some guy called Eddie taught her to play (Hmm)
Stole all her money and he’d cheat every day (Boooo!)
When they found Eddie he was missin’ some parts (Oh ohh)
Couldn’t prove it but they noticed the start
Of Betty’s mean streak
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Verse 3)
Well when I met Betty I was singin’ the blues (Aww)
I wasn’t really in a romantic mood (Un hun)
One hour later I was under her spell (Ohhh!)
She promised heaven so I said “Might as well” (Yeah, I get it)
She took me home and showed me all of her games
They start out with pleasure but they end up with pain
CHORUS … ( ending)
She got a mean streak, Broadway Betty
Got a mean streak, that Broadway Betty
Such a mean streak, she’s always ready
With a mean streak, Broadway Betty
She got some lovin, “A-Number One”, yeah
She’s gonna promise you it’s gonna be fun, yeah
But guarantee you as soon as she’s done
That you won’t walk away
You’ll run, run, run
Better watch out boys, here she comes (Oh ohh)
