VERSE 2
I like small towns and the people there. Easier money than welfare.
What does it take to get a handout? A augmentedA sucker to trust you without a doubt.
But they need me and I need them, we?re all red-blooded working men.
Good or bad, where do I stand? Between the devil and a dollar is a confidence man.

VERSE 3

When the market dies like it always does everybody?s pockets are lighter than they was.
Evrybody?s mad everybody?s pissed They can?t believe that they were taken by a scam like this
Still they can?t even understand, how they got swindled by an ordinary man
They pay the price, that?s why I came, to make ?em all losers in a confidence game.
