Deceivers Blues

You might lose every dollar you make

Cradle will fall and the bank will break

You might laugh until you wear that mistake

Swore it never happened to you

Taking from Peter, give it to Paul

It's feeding your family or against the law

It all depends on which side you fall

On these deceiver's blues

Two different rules a man lives by

The law of truth

The law of a lie

It's up to you

You decide

Win or lose

Do or die

Sometimes I wonder how the good Lord decides

Who gets the luck, who gets the struggle and strife

Good and evil, the wrong and the right

I've learned from both the two

I never win any game but mine

I learned the hard way when to call it a night

If you care to learn, son, I'll teach you right

Oh, these deceiver's blues

Two different rules a man lives by

The law of truth

The law of a lie

It's up to you

You decide

Win or lose

Do or die

Two different rules a man lives by

The law of truth

The law of a lie

It's up to you

You decide

Win or lose

Do or die

You might lose every dollar you make

Cradle will fall and the bank will break

You might laugh until you wear that mistake

Oh, these deceiver's blues

Oh, these deceiver's blues

Oh, these deceiver's blues
