Tropical Chancer

He'll take the money

and the food that's in your hand

But you have to understand

that he's a dreamer

Living my life within a mile

you could believe

This place turns honest men to thieves

And I could see it in his eyes

He was the type to sail off in the night

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer,

didn't know he was a tropical chancer

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer,

didn't know he was a tropical chancer

He'll trade your loving

for the things he's never seen

The places he has never been

Oh but remember

he is just a good pretender

And he doesn't give his love away for free

And I could see it in his eyes

He was the type to sail off in the night

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer,

didn't know he was a tropical chancer

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer,

didn't know he was a tropical chancer

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer,

didn't know he was a tropical chancer

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer,

didn't know he was a tropical chancer
