Click goes the camera and pop goes the light
Bettie Page posing in her fishnet tights
Got her eyebrows arched and her bangs cut straight
A come hither look the just can't wait
Now Momma may not want her boy to see
'Cause Bettie don't look how a good girl's supposed to be
But me, I'm sure she's more than just fine
Bettie's just ahead of her time
Searchin' high and searchin' low
Wonderin' where that pretty girl did go
Man, I looked from here to heaven
But ain't nobody seen her since '57

(CHORUS)

Bettie Page, where did you go Bettie Page? Doesn't anybody know?
Hey baby, I love you so. Where did you go Bettie Page?

Now she made a trip out to Hollywood
Bettie was ready and she was lookin' so good
But things didn't work out the way she planned
The town got hot and Bettie got scammed
Ever since then she's been undercover
Though nine million men wanna be her lover
I just gotta find her and sing her this song
Tell her, "Girl you didn't do nothing wrong!”
Is she in London, Paris or Rome?
Or stranded in the jungle so far from home?
She could be on an island in the middle of the sea
Or hidin' out with Elvis back in Tennessee

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Bettie Page, are you all tied up?
Bettie Page should be drinking from a loving cup
Hey baby, won't you please instruct? Where did you go Bettie Page?"

Hey Bettie, won't you take my hand?
We'll go dancing to a big Swing band
Meet my lawyers, Slick and Fair
When they're done you'll be a millionaire

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Thumbs up on Bettie Page song
Review written by Anonymous, July 25th, 2009

In my opinion this is one of the two best Bettie Page tribute songs ever written as of 2009 anyway. Thanks much to the band for putting this wonderful song together.
