[Intro: Tulisa & Dappy]
Oh-oh
Don't get nine, nine, nine
You only get one chance, don't get nine
Don't get nine, nine, nine
You only get—, only get—, only get—
Oh-oh
Don't get nine, nine, nine
You only get one chance, don't get nine
Don't get nine, nine, nine
You only get—, only get—, only get—
Oh-oh

[Verse 1: Tulisa]
The other day, two of my friends told me that you liked me
Would do just about anything to spend the night with me
But for me to like you, you gotta have humour, better have class
And by the looks of it, you got much more than that (Oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Dappy & Tulisa]
See every other girl I've been with (Yeah)
Had they face all up in my business (What?)
So why would you? I need to chase ya
'Cause I'm all about that paper
See every other man I've been with (Ooh)
I realise I never could live with (Ooh)
Until you came into my life
You just might change it all for me so
