    "Black Betty" was Ram Jam's only big hit in 1977. But it is one of the most fun & energetic songs. Just some dudes hanging out in someone's back yard & jamming out. Love it! "Black Betty" is a 20th-century African-American work song often credited to Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter as the author, though the earliest recordings are not by him.
    While some may think “Black Betty” refers to a woman, others claim it’s a nickname for any number of objects, including a bottle of whiskey, a whip, or even a penitentiary transfer wagon.

    The music of my youth!!! I believe it was performed by "Leadbelly" Ledbetter - the original tune I think referred to prisoners and the whip carried by abusive prison guards - but Ram Jam's version was more likely to reference a woman - but definitely had its origin in the blues

    You rewind it because it's just not long enough... the rest of us play it on repeat!

    It's basic southern Rock, & no there aren't any other songs of note by Ram Jam. Sadly. 😿🎶🎶🎵🎶🔥💯✌️☮️🕊️
