Listen, babe, don't be no fool
Play a nice game, try to keep it cool
'Cause I'm bettin' on you
I'm bettin' on you
So, come on, baby
Tell me what you're gonna do!

Now, tell your woman to don't be so hot
For I'm the gal that'll crack her on her knot
For I'm bettin' on you
Oh, I'm bettin' on you
So, come on, babe
Tell me what you're gonna do!

(spoken:
Yeah, I'm bettin' on you
Now, man don't you be no fool
I'm just tryin' to be somebody!)

You can laugh and dance and can have your fun
But when it comes to lovin' don't give away none
For I'm bettin' on you
Oh, I'm bettin' on you
Oh, come on, babe
Tell me what you're gonna do!

I'm going out and try to make some jack
But hold everything 'til I come back
For I'm bettin' on you
Oh, I'm bettin' on you
Oh, come on, babe
Tell me what you're gonna do!

(spoken:
Now, swing, you cats!
Oh, you're a nasty man!
Who wouldn't bet on you?)

Baby, I don't want nothing else I see
But what you got really pleases me
For I'm bettin' on you
Oh, I'm bettin' on you
Oh, come on, babe
Tell me what you're gonna do!
