Lyrics of Trick Bag by Earl King
Twelve o′clock at night, you walk out of door
You told me, baby, you was going to the drugstore
But-a in my mind i knew you was lyin'
The drugstore close at a quarter to nine
I said, saw you kissin′ Willie across the fence
I heard you tellin' Willie i don't have no sense
The way you been actin′ is such a drag
You done put me in a trick-bag
When-a i come home, you start an argument
Just to keep me from askin′ where my food done went
Walk in the front door, i hear the back door slam
Peep out my window, somebody's takin′ on a lam
But i saw you kissin' Willie across the fence
I heard you tellin′ Willie i don't have no sense
The way you been actin′ is such a drag
You done put me in a trick-bag
We had a fight, then you got mad
Got on the telephone, call your mom and dad
They came a-runnin down with bats in their hands
"Don't you hit her no more, you understand?"
But i saw her kissin' Willie across the fence
I heard her tellin′ Willie i don′t have no sense
The way she's been actin′ is such a drag
You done put me in a trick-bag
You git me wrong, but i know i'm right
It wasn′t i that started the fight
"She's my daughter and i′m her paw
"You ain't nothing, a-but a son-in-law"
But i saw her kissin' Willie across the fence
I heard her tellin′ Willie i don′t have no sense
The way she's been actin′ is such a drag
You done put me in a trick-bag
