"Somebody Tried To Sell Me A Bridge" lyrics

Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Just go ahead and try it they said and never mind
But I just couldn't compromise
When somebody just tried to sell me a bridge

I couldn't go against what I believed
Or I would have to pay a very heavy price
So I couldn't buy into it or just roll the dice
When somebody tried to sell me a bridge

Devil to pay, either way
I may be a lot of things but stupid I'm not
If you don't know who you're dealing with
Then just go on ahead, go on ahead and fold up your tent

Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Just like money must mean to them everything
They tried to play me, play me for a fool
But they weren't really listening to me
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge

Devil to pay, either way
I may be a lot of things but stupid I'm not
If you don't know who you're dealing with then
Just go ahead, go ahead and, go ahead and fold up your tent
Just fold up your tent

Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Like they said money, money means everything
They tried to play me, play me for a fool
But they weren't really listening
They tried to sell me a bridge

They never listened to what I had to say
They kept on talking all over the place
They didn't listen enough to what I said
Well they thought they could sell me a bridge

Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
They said just go ahead and go ahead and never mind
But I couldn't compromise what it is
When somebody tried to sell me a bridge

Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge

Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
They said go ahead, go ahead, go ahead
Somebody can make it rich
Somebody can make it rich
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Somebody can make it rich
Somebody can make it rich
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
Somebody tried to sell me a bridge
