Trick Bag

Compositor: Johnny Winter

12:00 o' clock at night, you walk out the door
You told me baby, you was going to the drug-store
Well, in my mind, I knew you was lying
The drug-store closed at a quarter to nine

I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

When I get home, start an argument
Just to keep you from asking where my voodoo went
Walk in the front door, I hear the back door slam
I peek out of my window, somebody's taking it on the lam

I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

We had a fight, then you'd get mad
Got on the telephone, you call your mom and dad.
They come a-running down with a bass in their hands
"Don't you hit her no more, you understand?"

I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag

You did me wrong but I know I'm right
It wasn't me baby that started the fight
"She's my daughter and I'm her pa,
And you ain't nothing but a son-in-law"

But I saw you kissing Willy across the fence
I heard you telling Willy I don't have no sense
The way she been acting is such a drag
She done put me in a trick bag
