Baby, I know you've been tryin' to fool me
Like a fox, you been leadin' me astray
But like a hound, I'm one step behind you
Getting closer every day

I've been searchin' for those clues to show me
Show me where you've been
Oh, oh, you're a hard case to solve now, baby
I need your lovin'

Detective man
Detective man

If you try to sneak away, honey
Pack your bags and leave town
Remember I'm a detective man
And I don't make no sound

So pack up all of your things now, baby
You won't get too far
I'll put a tail on you, baby
And by midnight I'll know where you are

Detective man
Shoot you down
Detective man

Detective man
I'll shoot you down, baby
Detective man
I tell you

Baby, I know you've been tryin' to fool me
Like a fox, you been leadin' me astray
But like a hound, I'm one step behind you
Getting closer every day

I've been searchin' for those clues to show me
Show me where you've been
Oh, oh, you're a hard case to solve now, baby
I need your lovin'

Detective man
I'll shoot you down, my baby
Detective man
I'll shoot you down, my baby

Detective man
Gonna have just you, baby
Detective man
Gonna have just you, baby

Detective man
I'll shoot you down, my baby
