Black Betty Lyrics:
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Black Betty had a child (Bam-ba-Lam)
The damn thing gone wild (Bam-ba-Lam)
She said, "I'm worryin' outta mind" (Bam-ba-Lam)
The damn thing gone blind (Bam-ba-Lam)
I said "Oh, Black Betty" (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Oh, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
She really gets me high (Bam-ba-Lam)
You know that's no lie (Bam-ba-Lam)
She's so rock steady (Bam-ba-Lam)
And she's always ready (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
She's from Birmingham (Bam-ba-Lam)
Way down in Alabam' (Bam-ba-Lam)
Well, she's shakin' that thing (Bam-ba-Lam)
Boy, she makes me sing (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty
Bam-ba-lam
Spiderbait with Black Betty
Did you know the original Black Betty was written in 1933?
The song was first recorded in the field by US musicologists John and Alan Lomax in December 1933, performed a cappella by the convict James "Iron Head" Baker and a group at Central State Farm, Sugar Land, Texas (a State prison farm). Baker was 63 years old at the time of the recording.

This is the best version of Black Betty

[@Notric]

Yes! This is the version all Aussie cover bands do.

[@tommyau2006]

by far

[@seonaelizabethcoster8465]

Hands down best version.

I've never been all that drawn to Spiderbait, but that song, when it first came out, it got me. Can definitely appreciate those drums!

[@anonymous2012s]

THE BEST VERSION!

That is his actual voice. The band is from Australia and have been together since 1991.

[@SuzyTrippa]

He is using a voice box to change it.... hahaha you actually thought its his voice!

Search for him singing Monday Morning on Rockwiz to hear his natural voice, he has a gorgeous voice

[@dazstuff1875]

sure was. saw them a few times including homebake 95' in byron (before it was shit). all covered in mud, then all down to the pub.

[@hellovicki6779]

Awesome band, they go off live, the crowd just pulses in time with the all time drummer. Listen to 'Old Man Sam' if you like them.

[@MrDekasOne]

this song is actually so much older than ram jams version the version most people think is the original, there have been many different versions of this song before ram jam did it the most well know version prior to ram jam was led belly in 1939 but the song is even older than that it was originally a song sang by convict workers and the first ever recording of it was in 1933, the songs changed numerous times over the years with lyrics added which has caused a lot of confusion and misinformation over the topic of the song and in particular what of who black betty is, ram jam themselves even added lyrics to the song, both the version by led belly and the original first recording can be found here on KZbin it's quite interesting to see how this song has changed over the years

[@Bongsandquotesilike]

Kram (the drummer) is largely responsible for some of the most successful music to come out of Australia. Dudes an incredible talent and has a super keen eye for it as well.

[@linksta1975]

Spiderbait still kick arse now!!

[@ray.shoesmith]

Along with Spy vs Spy these guys put out the the biggest 3 piece sound in Aussie rock tbh

[@notbotheredable]

Plus the Living End.

[@peterarmistead3669]

Mark of Cain are the biggest sounding 3 piece Australia has produced

[@alanstrom2221]

Spiderbait are an Australian alternative rock band from Finley, New South Wales, formed in 1991 by bass guitarist and singer Janet English, drummer and singer Kram, and guitarist Damian Whitty. In 2004 the group's cover version of the 1930s Lead Belly song "Black Betty" reached number one on the ARIA Singles Chart. They have five top 20 albums: (1995), (1996), (1999), (2004), and (2005). The group have won two ARIA Music Awards with the first in 1997 as 'Best Alternative Release' for and the second in 2000 as 'Best Cover Art' for their single "Glockenpop". Between 2004 and 2013 the band was on hiatus to concentrate on solo projects and their personal lives-although periodically returning for occasional gigs. In November 2013 the band released its first studio album in nine years,

[@TrojBlu]

Great to see this reaction. I admit to being a little confused, as I tried to request this one a long time ago... I'm not complaining. Fantastic to finally see this! Thank you, Micheal, Travis and Suzi!

[@christineremmer5514]

brilliant loved it from an old rocker chick from Darlington uk

[@MarcWaters1]

guys this is so a funny sentence. travis talks about that it sounds like a banjo , and suzi said , defently a tiny guitar😄. I love it!

[@nath7695]

I love their 25 minutes drum solos during this song

[@macman1469]

Awsome ,been waiting for this . Thank you.

[@sdev2749]

They added a tinge of ZZ Top to their style for this one. Brilliant cover

[@davidcarlisle6560]

Australian Rock n Roll is and always has been the best on the planet !!! So consistent from the 70’s 80’s 90’s and still

[@MadDogAdventures]

More Aussie brilliance. The episode of the Simpsons, where Bart learns the drums, they take off this clip

[@pavelstoikov3780]

spiderbait black betty need for speed underground 2 BABY !

[@alanstrom2221]

Led Belly did the original Blues version in the early 1930's. Ram Jam modernised the song in 1977. Spiderbait version - In 2004, Australian alternative rock band Spiderbait released a version of "Black Betty" as the lead single from their sixth studio

[@alanstrom2221]

Lead Belly not Led Belly.

[@seonaelizabethcoster8465]

Shit! Was this really released in 2004! No way! I can't be that old!

[@Pi_r8]

Starstruck did the 1973 version, later released by Ram Jam, (was the same guitarist who re-worked it)

[@SR-xk8cd]

If there’s one thing Australian rock bands do brilliantly, and that’s covers.

[@GavinSouthern]

Seen it live TWICE LOVE THEM

[@MrMalchore]

Great reaction. Spiderbiat perfected the Ram Jam version. Ram Jam was a 70s southern Rock-a-'billie band, and "Black Better" was their one-hit wonder. So I think that explains why Spiderbait started the song with a Banjo. Anyways this song and video kicks maximum ass.

[@jemxs]

Best cover of this song! Great video!

[@scotthudson4252]

It’s Kram’s car too called Black Betty.

[@tomperkins4620]

This was used in a film sound track during a fight scene

[@drew65sep]

Lol, this has been on my stay-list for a long time. MTV played this a lot back when it came out...was on Headbanger's Ball a good bit too.

[@wizard2755]

This band goes off live

[@adamparker9765]

It was actually a Chinese mandala in this song.

[@55bolts]

This song originally came out in 1933 by James " Iron Head" Baker. The Evolution of this song is crazy. Once Ram Jam covered it, you couldn't go anywhere with out it being played in 1977. Up comes Spiderbait in 2004 and just takes it up a whole other level! Perfect video for this song as well. The steel banjo is a hell of a touch for this song. Absolute genius!!!

[@FrogBoatFishing]

Susie is the most gorgeous woman on youtube... smile, makeup, hair... omg Travis you lucky SOB... damn she's so gorgeous

[@devonphipps2807]

Ram jam version for nostalgia Spider bait version for running from cops.

You two really are the sweetest.

Love not only you are badasses, you are also from my hometown of the land and I also love… Aussie rock Now I need to get back and see you guys play- you kick ass

The 'little guitar' is a banjolele.

[@nidzdotnet76]

Anything that brings Spiderbait to the forefront is a good thing... The car is called Black Betty

[@V3Valhalla]

I listen to 3 songs to get me hyped up to go to the gym; Kickstart My Heart, Powerman 5000's When Worlds Collide and this. Im ready to run through a brick wall afterwards.

[@chrischapman8489]

1st love you guys and all you doing your reactions, you guys make my days brighter. 2nd I wish more youtubers would react to this song and this band as they are criminally underrated. And lastly many happy blessings and fruitful years to you😊😊😊

Love this one. Gee Whizz, but the lyrics are hard to remember aren't they!?! 😆🙃🤣

[@danielbrooks6268]

Will never forget seeing Spiderbait live at Big Day Out (I think around 96 or 97). The mosh pit was so intense - got crushed so bad I got 2 fractured ribs! Rode the crowd to the front the got kicked up the ass by security because I wasn’t moving out fast enough…🤣🤘🏼

[@stevenewcomer8837]

Their song “Tonite” is really sweet!

[@anthonyhaylock6655]

That little stringed instrument is called a banjolin , it’s like a cross between banjo and mandolin

[@EyeoftheCrow666]

I smell a Wolf Hunter's cover where.. indeed the drummer races a car. 10/10 make it happen

[@craigedwards2940]

I actually couldn't wait to see it. :-)

[@adrianhendricks9470]

this is what you call full power rock n roll

[@Paldasan]

IIRC Kram struggled to get the right vocals for this song. I think he ended up recording it while lying down in the bathroom. So it is him, with at least the natural reverb that comes from singing in a tiled room (hey folks, that's why even you and I sound good singing in the shower). Couldn't tell you anything about the production side of things though. As for the banjo, I suspect it was added to reinforce that connection with the southern rock/ blues rock feel of the Ram Jam version to what is otherwise a slightly faster and much heavier version.

[@Prismatic_Truth]

Sounds like he's singing it underwater in the bathtub.😂

[@jimmywrangles]

I believe that's a Banjo Mandolin.

[@perrdawg-py8my1cl7l]

The drummer was in the back of that vintage truck

[@mixhaelamikovich]

Kram is a badass drummer and singer

[@peterdubois65]

Kram is amazing! Funny thing except for electric guitars this song has hardly changed since Leadbelly wrote it in the 19th century

[@mollymillions5438]

Did you notice that the bas player is a chick (but she fulfils the role of of a rhythm guitarist in this three piece). She rocks and her sound rocks.

The drummer is probably in the back of a table top UTE.

Filmed on the GC highway - Oz at its best

[@katherineschmidt2075]

Excellent vid clip, yes the best. Kram on the drums is racing against Black Betty the car. They're trying to beat each other but on a single lane road they find it hard to overtake each other. His voice is naturally quite grainy but it is slightly enhanced in parts. There is a clip out people are reacting to of this live at a festival which is great. The crowd are all crowd surfing and going nuts.

[@IHJello]

They beat the shit iiut of those drums 😂

How does his "Kram" it all in... a play on words there because "Kram" is the name of the drummer. I like this version the best but then I may be a little one-sided because I'm an Aussie.
