Buttercup 82 Version by Carl Anderson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a chance for everybody
So I took my chance on loving you, yeah
But no one man can make you happy
You wanna have your cake and eat it too, yeah
[Chorus]
You won't give up your buttercup
You say you love to but one is givin' up
'Cause he can't stay, no, no
Aw, you won't give up your buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
And I can't stay
Rump, pump, pa, pumpah, pah, dahbah
[Verse 2]
I've a right to my opinion
Feeling we'd be better off as friends, yeah
'Cause you can make no one man happy
When you're spreading yourself much too thin
[Chorus]
Aw, you won't give up your buttercup
You say you lovе to but one's given up
'Cause hе can't stay, no, no
Aw, you won't give up your buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
And I can't stay
Rump, pump, pa, rump, pump, pa, dah
[Bridge]
Dit, dit, dit, dit, di, dit, di
Dit, di, dit, di, dit, di, dit, di
Dit, dit, dit, dit, di, dit, di
Dit, di, dit, di, dit, di, dit, di
Dit, dit, dit, dit, di, dit, di
Dit, di, dit, di, dit, di, dit, di
Dit, dit, dit, dit, di, dup
Oh, buttercup, well, give it up
Na, na, na, na, na, no
Oh, buttercup
Ooh, no, no, no, no, no, no
[Chorus]
You won't give up your buttercup
You say you love to, but one's given up
'Cause he can't stay, no, no
You won't give up your buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
And I can't stay
Rump, pump, pa, rump, pump, pa, dah
[Verse 3]
There's a chance for even losers
'Cause I will find a love that's pure someday
Yeah-eh, yeah, but you will be the one who's bluer
Because your game of love no one will play
[Chorus]
You won't give up your buttercup
You say you love to, but one's given up
'Cause he can't stay, no, no
You won't give up your buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
And I, I can't stay
Rump, pump, pa, rump, pump, pa, dah
[Outro]
Won't give it up, well, give it up
No, no, no, no, no, no
Won't give it up, you gotta give it up
You gotta give it up, or you're gonna loose it
Won't give it up, oh give it up
You gotta give it up, whoa-oh
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... give it up, oh no, no
Won't give it up, come on and give it up
Give it up, won't you...
