Betty walked in with a red dress on   Charlie's first glance, he was fallin' in love   He didn't have to say what he felt that day      So Charlie promised Betty she had his heart   And Betty promised Charlie they'd never   Part till their dyin' day      Well, it didn't take long for the winds to change   Charlie's busy workin', Betty's home each day   And Charlie never knew 'bout Betty feelin' blue      So Charlie promised Betty she had his heart   And Betty promised Charlie they'd never   Part till their dyin' day      For so long things have been so wrong   Charlie always thought that he'd always be true   But he didn't know what a broken heart could do      Till Betty walked in with her blue dress on   At Charlie's first glance, he knew she was gone   She didn't have to say why she left that day      But Betty promised Charlie he had her heart   And Charlie promised Betty they'd never   Part till his dyin' day      Betty walked up with her black dress on   We all wondered if she would come and   What she'd have to say   Charlie's restin' place   But Betty had it written on Charlie's grave   "You had my heart till your dyin' day"   That's what I came to say
