"Bet You Wanna" is a song recorded by BLACKPINK featuring Cardi B. It is the fourth track in the group's first studio album The Album, following song "Pretty Savage" and before "Lovesick Girls".
The song is described as being an "up-tempo song that features pleasant and bubbly energy with famous American female rapper Cardi B. Tommy Brown and Mr. Franks participated in, and the lyrics are all in English, which is expected to draw enthusiastic responses from global fans."
Background and Release[]
On September 29, 2020, the song was first teased by Cardi B on her Twitter. Upon release, the rapper revealed that she had previously struggled keeping her lyrics clean, saying "it really hard for me to do a verse with no curse words and PG". She followed the tweet up by posting a snippet of an extended version with explicit lyrics. After being attacked by fans of the group on Twitter, she clarified that the fan base makes "relationships with artists very weird" and that she already got paid for her verse. The collaboration serves as the group's first rap feature in any of their songs. Lyrically, the song is about promising your significant other a good time until "said person is hooked". [1].

Cardi
Tell me where you wanna go
I’ll meet you with my bags at the door
(Ah I’m gon’ make you go blind
Every time I walk my hips they don’t lie)
Take me to your paradise
‘Cause I don’t wanna wait anymore
(Ah I’ll say it one more time
Every time I walk my hips they don’t lie)
You wanna touch wanna touch
Of course you wanna
You wanna run with my love
I know you wanna
From the club to the tub
You said you wanna
Give me an all night hug I bet you wanna
I bet you wanna
I bet you wanna
I bet you
I bet you
I bet you wanna, I bet you wanna, I bet you wanna
Something bout me’s takin you higher
And you ain’t ever gonna come down
(You ain’t ever, you ain’t ever)
I’m lighting your fire
And it ain’t ever gonna go out
(It ain’t ever, it ain’t ever)
Take the car keys
Drive me crazy
Cardi a good catch
But you gotta chase me
Grab my waist line but don’t ever waste me
Turn on please me but don’t ever play me
One of a kind
You can’t replace me
Time to shine I bust down the AP
The stakes is higher
Let’s do what we both desire
On god like I’m in the choir
I bet you if you make me sweat I’ll still be on fire
You wanna touch wanna touch
Of course you wanna
You wanna run with my love
I know you wanna
From the club to the tub
You said you wanna
Give me an all night hug I bet you wanna
I bet you wanna
I bet you wanna
I bet you
I bet you
I bet you wanna, I bet you wanna, I bet you wanna
Something bout me’s takin you higher
And you ain’t ever gonna come down
(You ain’t ever, you ain’t ever)
I’m lighting your fire
And it ain’t never gonna go out
(It ain’t ever, it ain’t ever)
If you want me
Better bet higher
Wanna look down
Up in the sky ahh
(Higher higher higher higher high
Boy better take it up so damn high)
Lookin so thick
Make you desire
I’m a whole bit
Keep you up higher
(Higher higher higher higher high)
[Je/Ro] Something bout me’s taking you higher
And you ain’t ever gonna come down gonna come down
(You ain’t ever, you ain’t ever)
I’m lighting your fire
And it ain’t ever gonna go out
(It ain’t ever, it ain’t ever)
Something bout me’s taking you higher taking you higher
And you ain’t ever gonna come down
(You ain’t ever, you ain’t ever)
Bet you wanna love this ahhh
