Mark Knopfler - Smart Money

Santa Ana's been kicking up sand All the way from Utah to La La Land Sways the fairy lights up in the boughs The finger-lickers who test the blow And make predictions for best in show Say the smart money ain't on your dog now Ain't on your dog now Cinderella's in the square They wait in line to see her there This little tootsie, she's showing 'em how Fresh out of fame school class This little hoofer means to kick some ass And the smart money ain't on your dog now Ain't on your dog now Helicopters overhead Showbiz kids are getting wed They already sold the shoot The ring going on her finger The slipper on her foot Down on the river, the wind's turned cool It's blowing all the way from Boston to Liverpool At least the summer knows when to take a bow Groovy nights and golden days Feel they could might just slip away And the smart money ain't on your dog now Ain't on your dog now
