If one was to beat another at a sport such as pool, and said person beat the other by "8-balling" him, then he could've been said to have been "sold up the garden path" by the victor.

If one was to have bought something for £400 that could normally have been purchased for a fraction of the price, he could also have been said to have been "sold up the garden path".

There's a fire beneath my skin
There's a fever that makes me ill
Got a love, a love that kills
I've got twenty four hours to live
Comeback, I'm begging you please
Comeback, I'm down on my knees
Comeback, I'm begging you please
I don't know why and I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
There's a rose across my chest
Got your name written on it
Love's the drug that I live by
Give me a shot before I die
Comeback, I'm begging you please
Comeback, I'm down on my knees
Comeback, I'm begging you please
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
Sold me down the river tonight
Whoo whoo
I've got twenty four hours
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why
I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
SOLD ME DOWN THE RIVER
