The Long Grift
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look what you've done
You gigolo
You know that I
Loved ya hon
And I didn't wanta know
That your cool, seductive serenade
Was a tool of your trade
You gigolo
Of all the riches
You've surveyed
And all that you can lift
I'm just another dollar
That youve made in your long long grift
Look what you've done you gigolo
Another hustle has been run
But now you oughta know
That this fool can no longer be swayed
By the tools of your trade
You gigolo
I'm just another John you gypped
Another sucker stiffed
I walk on by in the script
To your long long grift
The love had me in your grip
Was just a long long grift
