YOU TOOK ME FOR A RIDE
CHORUS
You took me for a ride,
Lied to me, Ya hurt my pride,
You took all the loot,
Left me alone to boot,
Why'd you take the money honey?
Leave me hog-tied
You took me for a ride!
The lotto ticket we bought, supposed to be a 50/50 split,
I put my trust in you, I must have been a blind dimwit,
Never dreamed we'd win, not very much of a chance,
The winning number in the town gazette, ended our romance!
CHORUS
You didn't split the winnings, you just cashed and dashed,
Your friends said you up and left, bad news travels fast,
Two-million-dollar payout, greed made you disappear,
You're going to blow all that dough and be back within a year!
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
CHORUS
Sure, enough did!

Written as a Johnny Cash Tribute. First time I have opened song with Chorus as opposed to verse.
