Discover the story of the song > Betty and Dupree – tia blake

The song tells the story of Betty and Dupree. Betty asks for a diamond ring, and Dupree promises to get it for her. However, he ends up robbing a jewelry store and kills two policemen in the process. He is caught and sent to the death house, where he calls out Betty's name. Despite not being able to see him, Betty still loves him and no one can take his place. The lyrics advise Betty to lay down and see what the future brings, as it might bring good things like sunshine or diamond rings, but if she loses her mind, it won't bring her anything.
