lyrics

tell me what you wanna do
What you think you gonna say
Now you got him where you want him
And the game’s getting underway
Put your money on the table, we ain’t got all day

Someone gone and shot their mouth off
Someone should have walked away
Now there’s gonna be showdown
Did you think there was another way
I wish I knew when you come cold and when you
came here to play

One fine day
We’ll look back, we gonna laugh
The way you drank your pay tonight
Grab your coat
Let’s sort your wheat right from the chaff
Before they turn out all the lights

Come on, babe, it’s getting late
This woodpile’s getting full of snakes
Yeah, they’re trying to shut us down
And you know, maybe we should make a break
See ‘em circle all the wagons, we ain’t in on the take

Some, they learn to play their hand
Some, they learn to smile and walk
But once again I see you swinging for a
triple off this double talk
And you know I’m the one’ll be
In an outline of chalk

One fine day
We’ll look back, we gonna laugh
The way you drank your pay tonight
Grab your coat
Let’s sort your wheat right from the chaff
Before they turn out all the lights
