Betty

Now Betty there, well let me tell you:

Before she went up to college, didn’t she act all high and mighty? Thinking she was better than the rest of us.

She said she was gonna leave this town, never coming back, acting all high and mighty.

But up there, in that fancy college, learning all them fancy college words, didn’t she get in a little trouble?

She came back, not so high and mighty, I’m glad to see.

She needed to get knocked down a peg or two.

Who is all high and mighty now, Betty?
