[Verse 1]

I should have known that you′d leave

This little pond to explore another sea

You would show your teeth

To the wolves and have them running for the trees

Oh the wolves and have them running for the trees

[Chorus]

Left town but your family doesn't know yet

You knew if you told them they probably wouldn′t let you go then

And I don't disagree

I just think you think differently than me

So when they come asking about you I'll lie through my teeth

[Verse 2]

Silence was something I never gotten used to

You never lеt me put

My money wherе my mouth is

Now its to late to

To cut to you crying

To calm you down I used to be

So good and you′d look at me as if you knew the answer

You just needed it from me

And when your father had too much to drink

You would hop your fence and cross the street

'Til the swing on my back porch would sing its song

Now you′re on your own

[Chorus]

Left town but your family doesn't know yet

You knew if you told them they probably wouldn′t let you go then

And I don't disagree

I just think you think differently than me

So when they come asking about you I′ll lie through my teeth

So when they come asking about you I'll lie through my teeth
