The Jeff Healey Band Confidence Man lyrics

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, I'm a

'Cause I feel soft touched
But I'm a confident man

I know your mother
Taught you how to bake a pie
And buy me a book
Your daddy
Taught you how to tell a lie
And not get shook

Let me tell you somethin', baby
You better learn
If you're gonna con the con man

You're liable to get burned, no

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

Don't scratch me too much, it could be hurt
'Cause I'm a confidence man

Now, maybe Chicago
Is a, where you're bound to
Love is a cheap perfume
It hangs around
And you roll the dice
Now let the bet stand

But 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
