Oh Bess oh where`s my Bess
Won`t somebody tell me where
I ain`t care what she say
I ain`t care what she done
Won`t somebody tell me
where`s my Bess Bess
My Bess I want her now
Without her I can`t go on
I counted the days that I was gone
Till I got home to see her face
Won`t somebody tell me
where`s my Bess
I want her so my gal my Bess
Where is she
Oh Lord in your big heaven
Please show me where I must go
Oh give me the strength
show me the way
Tell me the truth where is she
Where is my gal
Where`s my Bess?
