Trick Bag Songtext
von Robert Palmer

12:00 o′clock at night
You walk out the door
You told me, baby, you were going to the drug store
Well, in my mind
I knew you were lying
The drug store closed at a quarter to nine

I say, "I saw you kissing Jimmy across the fence
I heard you telling Jimmy I ain't got no sense
The way you′ve been acting is such a drag
You done put me in a trick bag"

When I come home
Start an argument
Just to keep me from asking where my voodoo went
I peek out the front door
I hear the back door slam
Peep out of my window, somebody's taking on the lam


I say, "I saw you kissing Jimmy across the fence
I heard you telling Jimmy I ain't got no sense
The way you′ve been acting is such a drag
You done put me in a trick bag"

Oh-hey, yeah
Oh-hey, yeah
Oh-hey, yeah
Ah-hey, yeah

We had a fight
Then you got mad
Got on the telephone, called your mom and dad
Dad said, "She′s my daughter
And I'm her pa
You ain′t nothing but a son-in-law"

I say, "I saw you kissing Jimmy across the fence
I heard you telling Jimmy I ain't got no sense
The way you′ve been acting is such a drag
You done put me in a trick bag"


Oh-hey, yeah
Oh-hey, yeah
Oh-hey, yeah
Ah-hey, yeah
Oh-hey, yeah
Oh-hey, yeah
Ah-hey, yeah
Ah-hey, yeah
