Call A Spade A Spade
By Turnpike Troubadours (with Jamie Wilson - awesome singer)
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well you ve got a ring, you ve got a new last name
You ve got the same old eyes, they re the same, aw the same
And you ve got a heart big enough to kill us all
But when you fall, well damn you fall
[Verse 2]
You ve got a way, and you ve got away with it before
You ve got a look that could drop me dead here on the floor
And you ve got a touch, it s the sweetest one I know
I gotta go, yeah I ve gotta go
[Chorus]
And everything s so easy up until it s complicated
Until we wake with our heads shakin at the choices we have made
Well to call the whole thing stupid seems so sorely understated
Aw, but can we dance a little long, can we call a spade a spade
[Verse 3]
Well you ve gotta try an awful hard to keep it hid
And you ve got a man (I ve got a man) oh and I been actinâ like a kid
And you ve got more than a tattoo up your sleeve
It s time to leave (it s time to leave), well it s time to leave
[Chorus]
And everything s so easy up until it s complicated
Until we wake with our heads shakin at the choices we have made
Well to call the whole thing stupid seems so sorely understated
Aw, but can we dance a little long, can we call a spade a spade
[Fiddle Solo] (2 lines - Tag 1st line of the Chorus)
[Verse 4]
Well I ve gotta quit, (yeah darlin I guess I do too)
Well I ll take a hint (oh take a hint), it s high time we get a clue
And darlinâ please (oh please) well could you stop sayinâ love
This ain t love, (no, this ainât love) good God above
[Chorus]
And everything s so easy up until it s complicated
Until we wake with our heads shakin at the choices we have made
Well to call the whole thing stupid seems so sorely understated
Aw, but can we dance a little long, can we call a spade a spade
Aw, but can we dance a little long, can we call a spade a spade
