Betcha Say That
Gloria Estefan · Original Album Classics [2010]
Betcha say that
To all the girls
You say you'll be my knight in shining armour
We'll run away and live a life of glamour
You say for me you'll be true blue
You say you want me everywhere beside you
And that you just cannot live without me, no
You say I love you
I betcha say that to all the girls
Betcha say that, betcha say that
You say you wish I wasn't so defensive
You try to kiss me but I'm apprehensive
No, no, I just don't believe you
You say you feel as though you're going crazy
Your head is spinning and your eyes are hazy
You say I want you
I betcha say that to all the girls
Betcha say that, betcha say that
I just don't know why
I don't believe you
But I want you anyway
You say you wanna fall in love forever
You'll get a place so we can be together
No more secret rendezvous
You say you're tired of always feelin' lonely
And that you want me for your one and only
You say I wanna marry you
I betcha say that to all the girls
I betcha
It's your favourite line and you think
It's gonna work every time, oh baby
Betcha say that line to all the girls
B-b-b-baby
I betcha say that, say that
I betcha use that line on all the girls
You think I was born yesterday
You think with me that you can have your way
Ooh baby, betcha say that line, to all the girls
Betcha say that
Betcha say that
