Trick Bag by Robert Palmer Lyrics
It was 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
Peek out the front door--I hear the back door slam
I 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
Oh 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
And 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
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
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
Peek out the front door--I hear the back door slam
I 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
Oh 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
And 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
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
Oh hey yeah
