I can spot your kind a million miles away,
Buckle down boots and a bloodshot gaze.
You talk so sweet until the going gets tough,
The last job you pulled was never big enough.
Don't say you'll change after the next time.
You wouldn't even be yourself if you weren't telling a lie.
(Chorus)
'Cause I know where the cops hang out,
I know where you'll be found,
I know what you're all about.
I know when you're going down.
You only call me honey when we're alone,
Hiding at your place up on slack road.
You've got an answer for every little thing.
You can't even tell me where you've been.
My face couldn't make you leave it behind.
Maybe twenty years in state will change your mind.
(Chorus)
Don't say you'll change after the next time.
You wouldn't even be yourself if you weren't telling a lie.
Maybe 20 years in state will change your mind.
(Chorus)
I know you'll never change now.
I know my love was good enough,
I know you would have shed my blood,
I know you can't shut me up.
I know when you're going down.
