[Verse 1]
The baby's sleeping in the crib on top
The baby's sleeping above you
You will lift him to the parking lot
Your car is waiting there for you
Your car is waiting there for you

[Pre-Chorus]
I would like to see a little more propriety
Cooperate with me and answer me
Without a plea

[Chorus]
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you

[Verse 2]
The whiskey's waiting on the firetop
The baby's going to drink too
The lady's got no clue; she's at the shop
But if she'd knew then she'd kill you
The bugs are out cause they come out at night
Usually they just bite our hands
'Cause normally we have clothes on without a fight
But now fighting's a part of baby's romance
But now fighting's a part of baby's romance
[Pre-Chorus]
I would like to see a little more propriety
Cooperate with me and answer me
Without a plea

[Chorus]
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you

[Verse 3]
Baby sleeps against graveyard flower pots
The baby's sleeping up against you
I think he'd prefer an old motel cot
Or any bed made without you
Or any bed made without you

[Pre-Chorus]
I'd like to see a little more propriety
Cooperate with me and answer me
Without a plea
I would like to see a little more propriety
Cooperate with me and answer me
Without a plea
[Chorus]
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you
I know now, I know now, I know now
I'm never gonna tell on you
I'm never gonna tell on you
I'm never gonna tell on you
