Lyrics

Well I trusted you with my butterfly knife
German raincoat and sister's light
If I was good as gold you would melt me down
Charge me rent on hallowed ground
Tattle-tale I heard what you did
You keep snitching but you can't keep hid
Tattle-tale committed your crime
And now your friend's do time
Well I move a little bit to keep myself fed
Hat on head and a sheet on bed
Tattle-tale what did you get paid
To fill the bosom of the merchant maid
Tattle-tale I heard what you did
You keep snitching but you can't keep hid
Tattle-tale committed your crime
And now your friend's do time
Well tell me who will stand who will hide
You haven't got a thimble full of pride
Singing and dance on the day you died
Friends waiting for you on the other side
Tattle-tale you can name your price
Couldn't get enough of your beans and rice
Everglade deeds sent you to school
Indian cities and Peter Russell
Tattle-tale I heard what you did
You keep snitching but you can't keep hid
Tattle-tale committed your crime
And now your friend's do time
Well I trusted you with my butterfly knife
German raincoat and sister's light
If I was good as gold you would melt me down
Charge me rent on hallowed ground
Tattle-tale I heard what you did
You keep snitching but you can't keep hid
Tattle-tale committed your crime
Now your friend's do time
