You ask me what I might say If I stand to lose it all And pay with one mistake You ask me what I should do I don't believe I should run away And give my share to you Fifty fifty down the middle You can have an equal share I was always on the fiddle A little here - a little there You saw my face on the screen So you'd like to tell the law Exactly where I've been And when the man with the star Starts shooting questions I hope you'll tell him How I got this far Fifty fifty down the middle You can have an equal share I was always on the fiddle A little here - a little there Does it mean that much to you Or will I be doing time Will you tell me what to do Maybe I'll just pay in kind
