The DprizefiAghter and the heiress
BoGth taDlented in their way
BoDth fightAing for inheritance
BoGth enDtitled to their day
SaidD the fellaA, "I've thrown my gloves
And looGsedD my shoes
Come joDin me inA the ring, my friend
Quit thGese lonDesAomGe blues
Quit myG lonDesAomGe blues"
The laDdy thought thAe longest while
And baGthed the timeD in light
She caDme to the concluAsion
ThGat heD hadn't won the fight
"Put yDour gloves backA on," she says
"AGnd stDeady with your pride
YoDu've dealt the eldest hAand, my love
But thGat part of meD hAasG died
ThaGt part DofA mGe has died"
I'Dm a fAortune telling concubine
I'Gm a troDubleshot saloon
You'rDe a wAelterweight companion
And Gyour liDght is at the loom
I'd raDther chase mAy options now
And plGace you in Dthe past
The fuDture's not yAet written
ThoughG the die DbeAhiGnd me is cast
The dGie behind DmeA iGs cast
I doDn't knGow anythDing about you
ButA I'm Gsure Emthat the doors of perception
Are trGue in theDir ways
InEm the faGce of it all
InG the starDk starinBmg face of it
