The Long Grift Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Look what you've done, you gigolo
You know that I loved your hon and I didn't wanna know
That your cool, seductive serenade
Was a tool of your trade, you gigoloOf all the riches you've surveyed
And all that you can lift
I'm just another dollar that you made
In your long, long griftLook what you've done, you gigolo
Another hustle has been run, but now you ought to know
That this fool can no longer be swayed
By the tools of your trade, you gigoloI'm just another John you've gypped, another sucker stiffed

A walk on role in the script to your long, long grift
The love that had me in your grip was just a long, long grift
