Dessa Alibi Lyrics

well I'm sure it's complicated and I'm sure your story goes way back but you're looking desperate lately and now is not the time to look like that I don't know if he did it and I won't ask there's a lot of good women with a lot of bad backs your man's in something heavy, it already looks bad careful what you carry on his behalf and I'm sure he's thinking of you too not the type to snitch and run, but but sometimes they say it's the plain truth 99 problems...

well I don't don't need need need to know but there's a set of my keys left under your door and if you need a place to sleep tonight well that's what family's for and I don't don't need need need to know but I'd put on my best fresh little black dress and go get seen tonight work on that alibi of yours

now I don't mean to be your mother got my own kids to raise and I don't aim to blow your cover it's your own hell to pay but the word on the street is a page out of Blake your man made money but he made mistakes and now that revelation's coming looks to you for a break you've always been cunning with those brave escapes but take a minute now, think this through give it a second and a bird's eye view think of the moments you've got left to lose like how much time are you really down to do?
well I don't don't need need need to know but there's a set of my keys left under your door and if you need a place to sleep tonight well that's what family's for and I don't don't need need need to know but I'd put on my best fresh little black dress and go get seen tonight work on that alibi of yours

now I've seen the way that you count your blessings with hatch marks on the wall and I've seen you coming out of Sunday confession with a numbered list and all now I don't bow my head for supper I never do kneel beside my bed but it looks like your afterlife is covered I hope on Earth you're careful kid

well I don't don't need need need to know but there's a set of my keys left under your door and if you need a place to sleep tonight well that's what family's for and I don't don't need need need to know but I'd put on my best fresh little black dress and go get seen tonight work on that alibi of yours
