Lyrics

Everybody Has a Tell

I swore I'd give up gamblin, my girl made me cross my heart
But I held a pair of aces in that smoky, backroom bar
Down to my last twenty & I had to make a stand
So I stared down those old cowboys til each one had tipped his hand

CHORUS
Now brother you can bet that everybody has a tell
Subtle as a tic or louder than an old church bell
Now you might think you're sly enough no one could ever gonna call your bluff
But brother you can bet everybody has a tell

I got home after sun up & that girl stood at the door
But there wasn't anything I didn't have an answer for
My alibi was ready it was airtight & rehearsed
But she could see right through it so I waited for the worst
CHORUS
BRIDGE
She made me twist & squirm - I felt my sweat run cold
& when she doubled down I was about to fold
Then she whispered we got one more game to play
And her smile gave her winning hand away
CHORUS

good song done well
