I Love Betsy

Lyrics

[JACK SINGER] I like taxis, I like trains, I like Brooklyn when it rains But I love Betsy I like walking after dark, I like jogs in Prospect Park But I love Betsy I like Shake Shack, I like MOMA, And New Jersey's ripe aroma The parade's when I see 'em and even the DMV And the Brooklyn Bridge by bike Heck, there's lots of stuff I like But I love Betsy and she loves me She likes hockey, no I swear She likes guys with thinning hair And I love Betsy She like pizza and Chinese Louboutin's and mac 'n' cheese God, I love Betsy She likes swimming, Writing letters She likes watching double-headers She drinks bourbon and sake And even likes Rocky III I'm amazed and I'm impressed But the thing that I like best is I love Betsy And she loves me Five years, I've been in love with Betsy for five years I can't believe she stuck with me What kind of luck have I got? To keep someone like her around Ten years, My mom's been dead already for ten years So since she put that curse on me No, there's no curse, It's not a curse, Forget I said curse, The point is it's been long enough, Now its time to grow up, Mom's in the ground And look what I've found I like dancing on the pier, I like Broadway, once a year But I love Betsy I like visits to the zoo, I like opera, that's not true But I love Betsy It's been five years and I'm ready, Get the sparklers and confetti Give a wink to the waiter And summon the maître d, Just like Jay-Z and Beyoncé, I will make her my fiancé I love Betsy, I love Betsy, I love Betsy, And Betsy loves me I'm a schmuck and Betsy loves me Doesn't matter what I do, I know its true I could never live without her Betsy loves me It's amazing, Betsy loves me And tonight I'm gonna show her Just how proud I am to know her There's no danger, There's no drama, There's no curse, And there's no mama Put my problems in the past I'm a grown-up man at last I'm the luckiest guy from the Bronx to the island So laugh if you wanna, This whole town is gonna see, That I love Betsy sorry mama, I love Betsy And she loves me
