Songtexte I Love Betsy - John Pizzarelli

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 parades 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 likes pizza and Chinese
Louboutins and mac and 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

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 years now 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 fiancée
I love Betsy
And she loves me
I love Betsy
And she loves me
