[A] Betty drove the semi, [D] she pulled up to [A] the pump
I thought I wanted a Coca [B]-Cola and I started out [E] on the jump
[A] She said, hold it Dave, [D] come quick there's something [A] you gotta see
That man has got a dancing [D] bear tied [E] up to that [A] old [D] tree
She said, dance, [A] dance, Dakota, [D] dance, [E] all around the [A] country it goes
Me and Sweet Betty ain't never [B] seen a bear that [E] could dance before
[A] Well it's a one step, two step, three step, four
[D] He follows it [A] slow and he's playing some more
Dance, [E] dance, Dakota, dance, [D] all around the [A] country it goes
Well these hippies walked up to the cage [D] giving pills to that [A] old bear
I don't know what it was they was giving to him [B] and had him pulling [E] out his hair
[A] I tried to keep time to the music, Lord, [D] with the beat on my [A] tambourine
Gave him some wine from a Mason [D] jar and we [E] all began [A] to sing
He [D] sang, dance, [A] dance, Dakota, [D] dance, [E] all around the [A] country it goes
Me and Sweet Betty ain't never [B] seen a bear that could [E] dance before
[A] Well it's a one step, two step, three step, [D] four
He follows it [A] slow and he's playing some more
Dance, [E] dance, Dakota, [D] dance, all around the [A] country it goes
Well I went out to Los Angeles, California [D] and I saw a semi-truck along the side of the [A] road
That said Dakota, dance, bear on [E] the side of it
Now they charge you [A] fifty cents to watch this bear dance around a truck
[D] So I turned to Arlo and I [A] said, Arlo, we ought to get down off these [E] motorcycles
And walk over there and see if that's the same [A] bear that Betty told us about
When she was driving [D] the semi-truck for us back in Nashville, Tennessee
[A]
So we got down off our motorcycles and we walked [E] over there eating our pickles
[A] Now there was four or five hundred thousand of [D] these hippie freaks standing around waiting on a rock [A] festival
It appeared that David [E] Allen Coe, Chris Christopherson and the [A] Grands, Monterey Road was playing in town that day
[D] And their airplane had got hijacked [A] somewhere over Chicago, Illinois
[E] So it turned out that the people with short [A] hair started throwing rocks at the people that had long [D] hair
And the people with long hair started [A] throwing the rocks back
[E] We come to find out in [A] California when they had a rock festival, you [D] were supposed to carry your own rocks
[A]
[E] Well I [A] walked up to the bear's cage and the bear looked at me and he said
[D] [A] I know you, you're David Allen Coe and that's Arlo Guthrie that sings country and western music on jukebox, radio and television
And y'all gave me some acid when I was in Nashville and started me to dancing around this truck
And I said, that's right son, that's why I'm here, because you signed a contract with me
And you owe me twenty percent of all the money you've been making since you've been out here on the road
He said, man I ain't got no money, I said what'd you do with it?
He pointed to the next cage and there was a female bear over there shooting up heroin
And before I could say anything I turned around and I saw a greyhound bus painted black and white
And it said the David Allen Coe Show, the mysterious rhinestone cowboy in the Tennessee hat band on the side of it
And there was a woman driving the bus and sure enough it was old Pusher Betty and she didn't have no bra on
And she said to me, she said, hey Dave, come [D] here quick, there's something you [A] gotta see
That man has got a dancing [D] bear tied [E] up to that [A] old tree
She [D] said, dance, dance, [A] Dakota dance, all around [A] the country floor
Me and Sweet Betty ain't never [B] seen a bear like [E] that before
[A] But if the one step, two step, three step, [D] four, finally [A] go to anything's floor
Dance, [E] dance, Dakota [D] dance, all around the [A] country floor
