Description: PINK MARTINI is back on TOUR starting in Summer 2021! Check the link below to see if we're coming to a location near you! pinkmartini.com/shows Pink Martini performs their original song "Bitty Boppy Betty" live at SFJAZZ in San Francisco from their December 2017 residency at the venue. Written by friend and longtime Pink Martini songwriting collaborator Alex Marashian, "Bitty Boppy Betty" was first heard on the band's fourth studio album, Splendor in the Grass. The song tells the age-old tale of the strait-laced district attorney by day who on the weekends is the cross-dressing life of the party. Featuring Jimmie Herrod on lead vocals, China Forbes and Timothy Nishimoto on backup vocals, bandleader Thomas Lauderdale on piano, with a trumpet solo by Gavin Bondy. Jimmie's EP can be purchased at Pink Martini's webstore...

Either way, that’s alright! Bitty boppy Betty What a bouncy beauty So sophisticated and refined She’s a boy who doesn’t show it And though the guys all know it None of them seems to mind When Betty starts a-boppin' The joint starts a hoppin’ She can twist and bend the whole night through You really can’t ignore her And if you don’t adore her There might be something wrong with you On Mondays bright and early Betty’s back to Billy Working hard on behalf of our town Upholding law and order Talking to reporters And keeping us safe and sound If there’s a moral to this ditty It’s not to judge Betty Billy or anyone ‘Cause life’s a lot richer With a healthy mixture Not to mention lots more fun! Bitty boppy Betty Bitty boppy Betty Bitty boppy Betty, boo boo On weekends she’s your honey Then comes Monday And that’ll be “Sir” to you! LINEUP: Thomas M.
