What Do They Know

(álbum: What Do They Know - 2021)

They know how to tell you
"That loaded up Tacoma
It ain't gonna take you anywhere"
They know how to make you
Feel a little bit guilty
'Bout trying to get out of there
They know a guy
That'll take you part-time
12.50, just starting out
They know it won't
Be very long
'Til you're turning that truck around

And they know
How to say you'll never make it on your own
Like they've got an "I told you so"
They're saving for
The day your fading red
Taillights are headed back home
And they know
How to tell you it'll all go wrong
How to tell you that road's
Too long, too far, too damn hard
Boy, it ain't nowhere to go
But what do they know?

And they know how to tell you
My shotgun seat's
No place for a girl like you
Know who they think I am
That I ain't the kind of man
You should tie your tomorrows to
And they know that we're settling
Because we ain't settling
Moving on don't mean moving up
Know that we're going too fast
Never gonna last
But baby they don't know us

They know
How to say you'll never make it on your own
Like they've got an "I told you so"
They're saving for
The day your fading red
Taillights are headed back home
And they know
How to tell you it'll all go wrong
How to tell you that road's
Too long, too far, too damn hard
Boy, it ain't nowhere to go
But what do they know?

What do they know?

Well, they know my voice when they hear it on the radio
Station that they're playing back home
And they know all the words to the songs I'm singing
And they know they wanna sing along

And they know
How to say you'll never make it on your own
Like they've got an "I told you so"
They're saving for
The day your fading red
Taillights are headed back home
And they know
How to tell you it'll all go wrong
How to tell you that road's
Too long, too far, too damn hard
Boy, it ain't nowhere to go
But what do they know?
What do they know?
