didn't work in the kitchen,
She took out dinner from the freezer,
left a note saying I'll be home soon
She left with both barrels loaded,
she had a target in sight
Rode to the big silver tower,
took that cabin to the sky
He's there waiting for the money
His hand reached for her purse
She couldn't find the words to tell him
The blood of your body runs cold
You wouldn't even beg for mercy
It wouldn't have mattered anyhow
Don't tell anyone that I sold you
The jury found her not guilty
Gave her par don with parole
The price of greed was the sentence
A broken heart and a broken hope
I used to pray with him on Sunday
I used to sing with her in church
It's like bread soaked in vinegar
It'll never cure our thirst
Don't tell anyone that I saw you
Don't tell anyone that I saw you
