Telling Lyrics Snippet:
I dug my key into the side/
Of his pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive/
Carved my name into his leather seats

She heard those sirens screaming out/
Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch/
She locked herself in the cellar

It was the first and the last time they saw each other face to face/
They shared a crimson smile and just walked away/
And left the secret at the grave

Telling Lyrics Snippet:
Jenny slipped something in his Tennessee whiskey/
No law man was ever gonna find
5) “Dirty Laundry” 2016
Telling Lyrics Snippet:
Yeah, I’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry/
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
