Off the Record (Live Acoustic)

They brought me in, said they need to ask a couple questions

Something ‘bout my husband, they’re saying that he’s gone missing

Where were you last weekend

When’d you last see him & would you have a reason

But little ole me, please

A girl like me would never

He was my forever

But off the record tween you and me

I’ve been lying straight through my teeth

He’s sleeping in a bed he made and now that bed’s six feet deep

You’d understand if you only knew

All the hell that he put me through

My guilt is light as a feather, I’ve never felt better

But that’s off the record

They let me go with a sympathetic sorry

Then I came home and all the neighbors were waiting on me

With a casserole dish

Saying he’ll be missed

What kind of person could ever do this

But off the record tween you and me

I’ve been lying straight through my teeth

He’s sleeping in a bed he made and now that bed’s six feet deep

You’d understand if you only knew

All the hell that he put me through

My guilt is light as a feather, I’ve never felt better

But that’s off the record

I’ll play the part

Keep them in the dark

& I’ll still wear this ring

But if the town gets to talkin’

I trust you won’t say a thing

‘Cause off the record tween you and me

I’ve been lying straight through my teeth

He’s sleeping in a bed he made and now that bed’s six feet deep

You’d understand if you only knew

All the hell that he put me through

My guilt is light as a feather, I’ve never felt better

But that’s off the record
