Dwight Yoakam — What I Don't Know lyrics

Lyrics

What I don’t know might not hurt me If I stay dumb and no one tells
But if I find out that you’ve been cheatin'
What I don’t know might get you killed
Death row in prison don’t look half as bad
As a life filled with heartache over you
So if you’re a playin' those dirty little games
You better pray that I don’t find out the truth
'Cause what I don’t know might not hurt me If I stay dumb and no one tells
But if I find out that you’ve been cheatin'
What I don’t know might get you killed
Smith and Wesson juries hold a real mean, nasty court
And the verdict that they pass is never slow
So keep on a wearin' that little poker face
'Cause soon enough your cards will have to show
And I don’t know might not hurt me If I stay dumb and no one tells
But if I find out that you’ve been cheatin'
What I don’t know might get you killed
