Slippin' Tongue
They say my heart's got a hole inside
The size of a liquor store
I do my best to keep it together
But I wind up drinking more
Cause you don't know what I've seen
Along that country mile
So, would you
Leave me alone
I have seen the other side
Of good dreams coming true
I've paid my dues along the way
More than a time or two
And you think you know all about me
But brother you've got it wrong
So, would you
Leave me alone
If you cared for the truth inside these words
You'd have never got it wrong
But since you played that game
It all makes sense because you went right along
Now the truth be told
And the lies unfold
The same way
You should've watched your slippin' tongue
I see both your faces now
And know how they love to lie
The seeds of anger have been sewn
And the rain comes from the sky
I would've thought you'd learned a lesson now
But brother I got it wrong
So, would you
Leave me alone
If you cared for the truth inside these words
You'd have never got it wrong
But since you played that game
It all makes sense because you went right along
Now the truth be told
And the lies unfold
The same way
You should've watched your slippin' tongue
If you cared for the truth inside these words
You'd have never got it wrong
But since you played that game
It all makes sense because you went right along
Now the truth be told
And the lies unfold
The same way
You should've watched your slippin' tongue
The size of a liquor store
I do my best to keep it together
But I wind up drinking more
Cause you don't know what I've seen
Along that country mile
So, would you
Leave me alone
I have seen the other side
Of good dreams coming true
I've paid my dues along the way
More than a time or two
And you think you know all about me
But brother you've got it wrong
So, would you
Leave me alone
If you cared for the truth inside these words
You'd have never got it wrong
But since you played that game
It all makes sense because you went right along
Now the truth be told
And the lies unfold
The same way
You should've watched your slippin' tongue
I see both your faces now
And know how they love to lie
The seeds of anger have been sewn
And the rain comes from the sky
I would've thought you'd learned a lesson now
But brother I got it wrong
So, would you
Leave me alone
If you cared for the truth inside these words
You'd have never got it wrong
But since you played that game
It all makes sense because you went right along
Now the truth be told
And the lies unfold
The same way
You should've watched your slippin' tongue
If you cared for the truth inside these words
You'd have never got it wrong
But since you played that game
It all makes sense because you went right along
Now the truth be told
And the lies unfold
The same way
You should've watched your slippin' tongue
