DA The prizefighter and the heiress GD Both talented in their way DA Both fighting for inheritance GD Both entitled to their day
DA Said the fella, "I've thrown my gloves GD And loosed my shoes DA Come join me in the ring, my friend GDAG Quit these lonesome blues GDAG Quit my lonesome blues"
DA The lady thought the longest while GD And bathed the time in light DA She came to the conclusion GD That he hadn't won the fight
DA "Put your gloves back on," she says GD "And steady with your pride DA You've dealt the eldest hand, my love GDAG But that part of me has died GDAG That part of me has died"
DA I'm a fortune telling concubine GD I'm a troubleshot saloon DA You're a welterweight companion GD And your light is at the loom
DA I'd rather chase my options now GD And place you in the past DA The future's not yet written GDAG Though the die behind me is cast GDAG The die behind me is cast
DGD I don't know anything about you AGEm But I'm sure that the doors of perception GD Are true in their ways EmG In the face of it all GDBm In the stark staring face of it
