Betty

(album: Swings - 2014)

And I was walking in Seattle, in, in, in, in, Seattle
And I was walking in Seattle, in, in, in, in, Seattle

I met this Betty in Seattle with two full sleeves
She was tatted, neck and back
Had the swag of Kat Von D
She was a rockstar, she got crazy, she stayed a classy lady
That Betty there she goes as
She's a catch and yes she knows it

Northwest life, buzzin lights on a busy night, and I was walking on the avenue right by the red light
I know you know where I'm talking
Up the block from Pagliacci's
I was walking, saw Ms. Foxy
So instead I started watching
And on this particular night
She cracked a grin and my limbs got light
Her red dress, was skin tight
Dreadlocks twist like Christmas lights
Two gauge right, red lipstick, a girl like this made me forget just where I was headed
So instead I'll just get married to this

Betty in Seattle with two full sleeves
She was tatted, neck and back
Had the swag of Kat Von D
She was a rockstar, she got crazy, she stayed a classy lady
That Betty there she goes as
She's a catch and yes she knows it

You gotta trust me, I'm not just tryna score
I always do what I can and I say what I feel
It's never gone bad before
Yes I notice that you're different
Don't know your expectations
But I, gotta say something to get the mood escalating
But, but, please forgive me
But, but you make me stutter
I usually don't do this but your eyes are like another universe, filled with color
And it's driving me mad
You are drop dead beautiful
Allow me to expand

I met this Betty in Seattle with two full sleeves
She was tatted, neck and back
Had the swag of Kat Von D
She was a rockstar, she got crazy, she stayed a classy lady
That Betty there she goes as
She's a catch and yes she knows it

Hey Betty Betty Betty, I really wanna know why
You never say my name when I walk by
I tried to holler at you several times
And you still never pay me no mind
So I stroll by with my hopes high
I got a good chance, don't I
Well at least I thought I did
But a broken heart is a part of this
And I heard that you're a nympho
I just wanna take her to the disco
Betty knows she the baddest in this shows
Official, yes we are
She make me work so hard
I finally found my getting and I found it when

I met this Betty in Seattle with two full sleeves
She was tatted, neck and back
Had the swag of Kat Von D
She was a rockstar, she got crazy, she stayed a classy lady
That Betty there she goes as she's a catch and yes she knows it

Yeah, yeah, yeah, she knows it
She knows it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, she knows it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, she knows it
She knows it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, she knows it
