Words that rhyme with Betting
Betting, a two-syllable word the lyric earns weight from by context, lands its weight on the tight /ษช/ and lets the line ring through a nasal. Plain-speech words like this earn weight through context. Take the rhyme counts on their own terms: there are a few perfect rhymes, no more, family rhymes are simply absent, the vowel-only slant pool is deep enough to write a whole album from. Take the lyric role separately and it's a low-register anchor. Treat the assonance list as the main shelf โ the strict column is the footnote.

Why betting rhymes the way it does
Betting sits on the tight /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and ends on a humming nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 31 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 91, assonance 12,676, and consonance 222. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Betting rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
