When The People Find Out

Steve Earle

It's late at night 
You're all alone 
Pale moonlight 
Cold as stone 
Heart beats fast 
Time moves slow 
Strangers glance 
Does he know 
Where you gonna run to 
Where you gonna hide 
Where you gonna run to 
Where you gonna hide 
Where you gonna run to 
Where you gonna hide 
When the people find out 
That you lied 
They took you in, made you well 
They told you things, they never tell 
To pay the debt, you made em fools 
That's what you get, they trusted you 
When they run to the temple and find 
That the treasure's gone 
Do you think it's gonna be a cross 
They're gonna nail you on
