Confidence Man

Confidence Man - Jeff Healey

Well I lost you at the border

When you crossed it

Had your number baby

But I lost it

I know your love

Was just a flimflam

Well you can't pull the wool over me

Cause I'm a confidence man

I can talk old ladies

Out of all of their money

I can talk young girls

Into calling me honey

You can talk all you want baby

But I got fast hands

You're a real soft touch

But I'm a confidence man

I know your mother taught you how to bake a pie

And read a book

Your daddy taught you how to tell a lie

And not get shook

Let me tell you something baby

You better learn if you're gonna con the con man

You're liable to get burned

Now now now

We were stretched out on the floor baby

It's all elastic

But you stretched it too tight

And it snapped like plastic

And the pieces went flying across the badlands

Your discovery to what could be heard

Cause I'm a confidence man

Now maybe Chicago

Is where you're bound

But love is a cheap perfume

It hangs around

And you roll the dice

Now let the bet stand

Well you can't pull the wool over me

Cause I'm a confidence man

No you can't pull the wool over me

Cause I'm a confidence man

Said You can't pull the wool over me

Cause I'm a confidence man
