Lyrics

[01:00.73] I betcha a nickel
[01:02.30] I bet you I win
[01:04.05] I betcha a nickel
[01:05.42] That you will give in
[01:06.97] What'sa matter honey
[01:08.04] Fraid you'll lose
[01:09.23]
[01:09.79] Do what you wanna
[01:11.35] And say what you choose
[01:12.97] I still betcha a nickel
[01:14.58] That you will be mine
[01:16.28] I betcha a nickel
[01:17.64] Even raise it a dime
[01:19.26] I always win my money
[01:20.51] You can bet on that
[01:22.14] I always take a tip
[01:23.51] And keep it under my hat
[01:25.51] You've got yourself to yourself
[01:28.25]
[01:29.01] Come on get off that shelf
[01:31.56] You can fool some of the people some of the time
[01:34.67] But you can't fool all the people all of the time
[01:37.79] That's why I betcha a nickel
[01:39.37] That you will be mine
[01:40.92] I betcha you'll sign on the dotted line
[01:43.73] I don't see no sense in wasting all this time
[01:47.10] Cause whatever you bet your bet is gonna be mine
[01:50.22]
[02:21.42] You've got yourself to yourself
[02:23.60]
[02:24.54] Come on get off that shelf
[02:27.23] You can fool some of the people some of the time
[02:30.41] But you can't fool all the people all of the time
[02:33.15]
[02:33.71] (we betcha a penny we ain't got a dime)
[02:36.71] Say that ain't no money you're wastin' my time
[02:39.64] I don't see no sense in all this rhythm and rhyme
[02:42.83] Cause whatever you bet your bet is gonna be mine
