Trick Bag Lyrics by Robert Palmer

(from the album Riptide)

No ratings yet

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 you from asking where my voodoo went.


I peek out of my window--somebody's taking it on the lam.
Peep out the front door--I hear the back door slam.
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.



Got on the telephone--called your mom and dad.
We had a fight, then you got mad;

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.


Yeah, yeah x4
