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 the day had gone perfectly right,
She won't know.
She won't know.
So play a little careless, you gotta contend
And you can't blame your mother,
She's trying not to say I was your 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...
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 die
I am fine to put your gun to my life
And know I'm scared it won't fire right
You won't know...
You won't know...
You won't know...
You won't know...
We're never gonna feel as full as we felt.
So let's go ouside 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're a heart attack, but you're the apple of my eye anyway
The smile on your face,
It's on your plate, it's 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 supply.
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.
You won't know.
You won't know.
You won't know.
You won't know.
You won't know.
You won't know.
You won't...
