Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't wantcha for the weekend, don't wantcha for a night
I'm only interested if I can have you for life, yeah
Uh, I know I sound serious and baby I am
You're a fine piece of real estate, and I'm gonna get me some land

Oh, yeah
So, don't try to rush honey, love can be fun
There's no need to be alone when you find that someone

[Chorus]
(I'm gonna getcha)
I'm gonna getcha while I gotcha in sight
(I'm gonna getcha)
I'm gonna getcha if it takes all night
(Yeah, you can betcha)
You can betcha by the time I say "go," you'll never say "no"
(I'm gonna getcha)
I'm gonna getcha, it's a matter of fact

@Cedric Mathew Hudson so why call me a liar then? I'm not lying. it's available, just not for wherever you live apparently, which isn't my problem. and I'm not your sis.

Cedric Mathew Hudson

@Deja because you're literally in another country sis

Deja

@Cedric Mathew Hudson you're replying to a 7 month old comment when you can just look for it yourself. if it's not on Spotify then why is it on my playlist?

Deja

@Cedric Mathew Hudson I'm not your sis. and this is why nobody likes white gays.

Cedric Mathew Hudson
