You Won't Know

Hey hey hey, Mr. Hangman
Go get your rope

Your daughters weren't careful
I fear that I am a slippery slope

Now even if I lay my head down at night
After a day I got perfectly right
She won't know
She won't know

So pray, little Kay, love is God on a good day
And you can't blame your mother
She's trying not to see you as her worst mistake

And I wish that I could tell you right now
I love you but it looks like I won't be around
So you won't know, you won't know
So you won't know, you won't know

So believe in me, believe them
You think I'll let you down? Well, I won't
They can fire everything they've got
And when you think I'm sunk I will float on and on
I have burned the bush that covered my light
Even though I'm scared I won't burn that bright

You won't know, you won't know
You won't know, you won't know

You're never going to feel as full as you felt
So let's go outside and we'll play William Tell
Take your time drawing a bead
I'll stand as still as you need
'Cause you're so good at talking smack, You heart attack
But you're the apple of my eye anyway

My smiling face that's on my head is on a silver plate

So they say, they say in heaven
There's no husbands and wives

On the day that I show up
They'll be completely out
Of their forgiveness supplies
And I can't use the telephone
To tell you that I'm dead and gone

So you won't know, you won't know
Yeah, you won't know, yeah, you won't know
Yeah, you won't know, yeah, you won't know
Yeah, you won't know, you won't know
