Confidence Man (Live 1989) - Jeff Healey

Written by：John Hiatt

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

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

But I got fast hands

As book

Yours songs that

I know your mother foges a man

Taught you how to bake a pie read a book

Daddy taught you how to tell a lie

And not get shook

Tell you somethin' baby

You better learn

Gonna con the con man

You're liable to get burned

Stretched out on the floor baby

It's all elastic

But you stretched it too tight

And like plastic

Pieces went flying across the badlands

Well you can't pull the wool over me

'Cause I'm a confidence man

Now maybe chicago

Is where you're bound

But love is a cheap perfume

It hangs around

And you roll the dice

Now let the bet stand

Can't pull the wool over me

'Cause I'm a confidence man

Can't pull the wool over me

'Cause I'm a confidence man

Can't pull the wool over me

'Cause I'm a confidence man yes I
