I turned your hole card upside down
|
I caught you cheatin' and runnin' around
|
There's a smile upon your face while another takes my place
|
And now at last dear the truth I'd found
|
|
Babe there's the green light you're free to go
|
You'll take a high road I'll take the low
|
Here's your coat and shoes and don't forget your blues
|
Your own canoe now you'll have to row
|
[ fiddle - guitar ]
|
Babe there's the green light shift your gear
|
I know you fooled me for all these years
|
I'll hold my head up high and forget you by and by
|
And there'll be laughter instead of tears
|
[ steel ]
|
Babe there's the green light kick up your heels
|
There'll come a day you know how it feels
|
To have your aces trump and be taken for a chump
|
Now there's the green light so spin your wheels
|
