Silver tongue, silver spur, every jingle sounds like a warning
Somebody's been talking and I can't tell who since this morning
Every friend I've got is a suspect till I hear it from her mouth
Trust was never free in this crew, that's the whole point of the south

Delilah's been quiet since the high noon job went through
Yeah
Said she had a cousin in the county who could vouch for who knew who
But the Marshal's radio caught a voice that sounded close to hers
Or maybe I'm just used to trusting nobody but the six-string's word
Gang
I've built this whole crew on a rule that we don't ever break
Everybody eats the same, everybody takes the same risk, same stake
So when a plate number leaks and only four of us knew where
Somebody in this circle's got a secret they ain't willing to share
Uh
I don't wanna believe it, I've known her since before the chrome
Since before the six-string, since before I had a real home
But loyalty's a currency and somebody's spending mine
Somebody's cashing out a trust that took me years to design
Skrrt
I keep replaying every conversation looking for the crack
Every laugh, every glance, every moment she looked back
Maybe I'm paranoid, maybe the county just got lucky
Or maybe silver tongues run in this family, and that scares me
Go dumb

Something's off, something's off

Gang

Watch your back, watch your back

Silver tongue, silver spur, every jingle sounds like a warning
Somebody's been talking and I can't tell who since this morning
Every friend I've got is a suspect till I hear it from her mouth
Trust was never free in this crew, that's the whole point of the south

I never sold you out, I just sold what I had to sell
Yeah
The Marshal already knew the plate before I opened my mouth to tell
You wanna point fingers, point 'em at the ones who tipped him first
Not the one who's still behind the wheel making sure we don't get worse
Uh huh
You think I'd risk everything I built for a payout from the law
You think loyalty's a thing I'd trade for something I never saw
I've driven every getaway since before you trusted anyone
I've earned a little more than an accusation when the job's not done
Gang
Somebody's scared and looking for an easy place to point it
Somebody's forgetting who's the one who's always claimed it
I get why you're looking at me, I get the math makes sense
But sense ain't truth, and truth is I've been loyal from the first fence
Skrrt
You wanna keep this crew together, you gotta trust the driver
Not the story that's easiest to believe when things get dire
I didn't sell the plate
I don't know who did
That's the honest truth
But I know it wasn't me, and I need you to believe that too
Go dumb

I want to believe you
I do
But the math ain't adding up clean

Then find the real answer instead of the easiest one to see

If it's not you, then who's left that even knew the route?

That's the question you should be asking instead of doubting me now

Somebody talked

It wasn't me

Somebody's lying

It wasn't me

I want to trust you

Then trust me

Silver tongue, silver spur, every jingle sounds like a warning
Somebody's been talking and I can't tell who since this morning
Every friend I've got is a suspect till I hear it from her mouth
Trust was never free in this crew, that's the whole point of the south

I don't know who to believe, and that's the worst part of it all
This crew was built on trust, and trust don't survive a fall like this
