A song written and performed by the British rock musician, David Bowie. It is the title track of his third album, released in 1970.

It was later re-popularized and introduced to a new generation by Nirvana's cover on their MTV Unplugged in New York album.

Also covering the song was the Scottish singer Lulu in 1974. It was released as a single, and provided the singer with a hit. Bowie not only produced this version, but also played a saxophone solo on it.

The song was then covered by American singer Richard Barone in 1987 on his influential, proto-Chamber Pop solo debut album, Cool Blue Halo. The Hip-hop group 3MG samples the Nirvana version in their song 2010. The psychedelic band Here & Now covered the song on their 1983 album "Fantasy Shift".

(Chorus)
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
Youre face to face
With the man who sold the world.

This seems to be a mixture of "led down the garden path" (meaning misled) and "sold up the river" (meaning "handed over to law enforcement", slang derived from the fact that Sing-Sing state prison is "up the (Hudson?) river" from New York City).
The enthusiastic young first-time buyer was led down the garden path by the unscrupulous used-car salesman.

The entire gang that pulled off the bank heist was sold up the river by the getaway driver after he was picked up and interrogated the next day.
