lyrics

Chorus:
Ya say what's mine is yours
And what's yours is yours
Well I don't ask for much
'Cept a likkle reciprocity
If you can't dig that ...
I guess I'm a tek my leave

Verse:
Ya holdin' all the Aces
Ya stealin' from the pot
Checkin' on all the raises
And ya know just what I got
Your poker face is a big disgrace
ya made me look the fool
And when it's time for showing hands
You aint playin' by the rules!
