Bettie

They used you for their toy
They used you for the joy
They bruised you,
What did you do?
Time to move on away from a clutch of fear
It’s over here…

She’s lickin’ up the liquor and kickin’ up the heat
The smoke is gettin’ thicker like the rhythm of the street

She’s got the boom, got the bang
Like Bettie La Roux
She’s got the boom, got the bang
Like Bettie La Roux
She’s got the boom, got the bang
Like Bettie La Roux
Swingin’ for a stingin’
Yeah, you know who!

She’s got the boom, got the bang
Like Bettie La Roux

Gettin’ busy in Mississippi

Time to move on away from a clutch of fear
It’s over here…

She’s lickin’ up the liquor and kickin’ up the heat
The smoke is getting thicker like the rhythm of the street

Let’s turn the red lights on
Party all night long
She’s lickin’ up the liquor and kickin’ up the heat
The smoke is getting thicker like the rhythm of the street
Gettin’ busy in Mississippi
(Gettin’ busy, gettin’ busy in the city)

Plastic beauty with very large dreams…
(Gettin’ busy, gettin’ busy in the city)
