Pistol Annies - Hush Hush lyrics
[Pistol Annies - Hush Hush lyrics]
Right around Christmas time
Mama made a turkey
Daddy was worried he was gonna have
To break up a fight
Everybody was walkin' on eggshells
Drinkin' eggnog instead of beer
We were holdin' our tongues
Scratchin' our heads
Wonderin' how the hell we got here
Hush, hush, don't you dare say a word
Hush, hush, don't you know the truth hurts
Hush, hush, when push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush, hush
We were sitting around the dinner table
And we were eating our pumpkin pie
While the sugar-coated purty little secret
Was eating everybody alive
Well daddy's readin' propaganda
And he's talkin' 'bout the end of days
Well cheers to the vodka mama's been sneakin'
Let's all gather 'round and pray
Hush, hush, don't you dare say a word
Hush, hush, don't you know the truth hurts
Hush, hush, when push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush, hush
So I snuck out behind the red barn
And I took myself a toke
Since everybody here hates everybody here
Hell, I might as well be the joke
I'm gonna dance up on the table
Singin' "This Little Light of Mine"
God gave it to me, what good's it gonna do me
If I don't, by God, let it shine
Hush, hush, don't you dare say a word
Hush, hush, don't you know the truth hurts
Hush, hush, when push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush, hush
Hide your tattoo put on your Sunday best
Pretend you're not a mess
Be the happy family in the front pew
Hush, hush, don't you dare say a word
Hush, hush, don't you know the truth hurts
Hush, hush, when push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush, hush
Don't you dare say a word
Hush, hush, don't you know the truth hurts
Hush, hush, when push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush, hush
(spoken: Angaleena Presley)
What are the neighbors gonna
Think? Better shut
That mouth hush it be quiet shh
(sung: all) best to keep it hush, hush
