I turned your whole card upside down I caught you cheatin' and runnin' around There's a smile upon your face while another takes my place And now at last dear, the truth I've found
Babe, there's the green light, you're free to go You'll take a high road, I'll take the low Here's your coat and shoes and don't forget your blues You're on canoe now, you'll have to row
Babe, there's the green light, shift your gears I know you fooled me for all these years I'll hold my head up high and I'll forget you by and by And there'll be laughter instead of tears
Babe, there's the green light, kick up your heels There'll come a day you'll know how it feels To have your aces trump and be taken for a chump Now there's the green light so spin your wheels.
