You Better You Bet Lyrics By The Who

    you better you better you bet ooh
    you better you better you bet ooh
    you better you better you bet ooh
    you better you better you bet ooh

    i call you on the telephone
    my voice too rough with cigarettes
    i sometimes think i should just go home
    but i’m dealing with a memory that never forgets
    i love to hear you say my name
    especially when you say yes
    i got your body right now on my mind
    but i drunk myself blind to the sound of old trex hmmmm
    to the sound of old trex oh and who’s next

    when i say i love you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i need you you say you better
    you better you better you bet

    post
    you better bet your life
    or love will cut you like a knife

    i want those feeble minded axes overthrown
    i’m not into your passport picture i just like your nose
    you welcome me with open arms and open legs
    i know only fools have needs but this one never begs
    i don’t really mind how much you love me
    ooh a little is alright
    when you say come over and spend the night
    tonight tonight

    when i say i love you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i need you you say you better
    you better you better you bet

    post
    you better bet your life
    or love will cut you like a knife

    i lay on the bed with you
    we could make some book of records
    your dog keeps licking my nose
    and chewing up all those letters
    saying you better
    you better bet your life

    you better love me all the time now
    you better shove me back into line now
    you better love me all the time now
    you better shove me back into line now

    i showed up late one night
    with a neon light for a visa
    but knowing i am so eager to fight
    can’t make letting me in any easier oooh ooh
    i know i’ve been wearing crazy clothes
    and i look pretty crappy sometime oooh ooh
    but my body feels so good
    and i still sing a razor line every time
    and when it comes to all night living
    i know what i am giving
    i have got it all down to a tee
    and it’s free

    when i say i love you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i need you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i love you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i need you you scream you better ooh
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i love you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i need you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i love you you say you better
    you better you better you bet
    when i say i need you you scream you better
    you better you better you bet

    you better bet your life
    or love will cut you
    just like a knife
