The Dealer

It was my fault, my move and my game

If I'd of looked a little ahead I'd of run away

It was dark out and I held the cards

Well I was a dealer... ooh, and it wasn't hard

I was a mistress of my fate...

I was the card shark

If I'd of looked just a little ahead I'd of run away

I was the mistress of my fate... oh, I gave it all out

But if you'd really known me then...

You'd of had to watch out

You'd of had to watch out

It was my fault, my moves, and my wine

I see the sun now... and it's just fine

But it was dark out... oooh, I held the cards

I guess I am the dealer!

Oooh, and it isn't hard

Well I was the mistress of my fate

I was the card shark

Jesse showed me at an early age

I could get away

I was a mistress of my fate,

I tried to give it all out

If you'd really known me then

You'd of had to watch out

You'd of had to watch out

Oooh, I was a mistress of my fate

I was the card shark

Jesse showed me as a little girl

Oh, I could get away

I was the mistress of my fate

Ooh, I had to find out...

If you'd really known me then,

You'd have had to watch out

Tried to tell you then... watch out!

Baby, you believe it, now watch out!

I'll be the dancer

And you be the player

And I'll dance around you

If you stay here

Whoa, I'll be the passion

Could you be the play?

Oh, I'll just almost hold you

And you'll just almost stay

You just... almost... stay

Baby, just... almost... stay

I'm still the dealer...

I try hard to be the dealer...

Don't want to be the dancer...

Tell her that I am the dealer...
