Jamie T - Livin' With Betty Lyrics






Civilised planning on what you're gon' do
You're not really sure about him, that's true
Man, stairs on the window, out to the rain
Asked, the girl thinks he's got a life of pain
Well, I saw Betty, bought a [?]
Ah, what's the feelin'? What's the talkin'?
They whisper behind their back, it's a ploy
Their plan ain't workin', she's still like a motherfucker

Ayy, ayy
It was livin' with Betty
Hey, oh yeah
That made me finally happy
Ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy!
It was livin' with Betty
That made me finally see the sense to be

What we are
It's just movin' around and drivin' Joel's car
Never knows [?]
And then girls hit another round from the bar
And we know exactly what we gots to do
When we come across you
Two fingers, and one of your own stuck right up your jacksy

It's what we thought
Pretty sure that no-one ever gave up
From your burnt fingers to smells that linger
To all others, brothers, sisters, baby mothers
To old young gunners and young gun sluts
And to all the people that don't get to pick up
To buts, to know, to never see
To have money, to be as poor as ladies
Ah, [?] in the corner, looking to border
A microphone's getting kicked on the floor, yeah

Hey, hey
It was livin' with Betty
Hey, hey
That made me finally see a side of me
Ayy, ayy
It was livin' with Betty
Ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy
That finally made me feel happy
Hey, hey!
It was livin' with Betty
Hey, hey
That made me finally see a side of me
Ayy, ayy
It was livin' with Betty
Ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy
That finally made me feel happy

And I know exactly what I got to do
Because you're talkin' to me too
Ah, oh-oh, uh-uh
But I see, there's no one else around me
That I can really trust to bust, to turn the back
To laugh, to lust, to have, to satisfaction
