James McMurtry - Where'd You Hide The Body Lyrics
You look across the table with those guilty eyes
So many mornings now, I shouldn't be surprised
When you lash out at me then you scream out in the night
What could you have done to get in such an awful fright?
Well who're you gonna talk to if you can't tell me?
Where'd you hide the body?
Where'd you stash the loot?
Just keep your hands where I can see them
So I don't have to shoot
There's a smoking pistol at your side
That you swear it's not the one
Where'd you hide the body?
Where'd you hide the body?
Where'd you get the gun?
When cornered you complain about the state of your career
And you look intently straight ahead, pretending I'm not here
And you look me in the eye and say "It's not about us"
And you tell me I'm so silly to be making such a fuss
So everything's okay except you're nervous as a cat
But what's it say about me if you think I'd fall for that?
Come on
Where'd you hide the body?
Where'd you stash the loot?
Just keep your hands where I can see them
And maybe I won't shoot
There's a smoking pistol at your side
And you swear it's not the one
Where'd you hide the body?
Where'd you get the gun?
Where'd you hide the body?
Where'd you ditch the gun?
Just keep your hands where I can see them
Make no attempt to run
You used to always throw me off your trail
But I guess those days are through
Where'd you hide the body?
What's consuming you?
Where'd you hide the body?
What's consuming you?

A phenomenal songwriter! One of the very best from this great state.

Where'd you get the gun John-, Guess Who, and Hip's -Locked in the trunk of a car
Cool song! I like the lyrics.
@MsPony65 . No offense to Mrs. McMurty was intended dariln. Jeez, ya know things are bad when you cain't even compliment somebody without somebody else taking offense at it for no damn reason in the world. People are just plain nutz nowadays.
I take offense to this comment! (just kidding)
@poppatoot He has a mother, too.
@Armydicked Dude, get off the meth.
@mla1057 Good question. I can't find it, either. Vevo says something about it not being released in this country. ???
Weried.
I'm sorry but McMurty's mouth is going to get him lying in a ditch somewhere. The man is brilliant but...Goddamn!!! But his stuff is so...off the wall!!! I played SAFE SIDE to a CW fanantic and he was not amused. Something about GODDAMN HIPPY!!! I played it to some Mexican Friends of mine and the were ESPECIALLY NOT AMUSED!!! Something about Pinche Americano!!! I love his stuff Here's Johnny and Safe Side (I wish he'd sing the entire song in Spanglish).
Michael Goncalves you and that hillbilly are too thick to understand.As far as James ending up in a ditch I seriously doubt that.James know his way around a firearm.If you cant handle the truth in his lyrics dont listen.Go checkout justin beiber.This is grownup music.
His music is “off the wall?” Let me guess—you like to drink rum and listen to Kenny and Jimmy. Stay in your own lane and don’t cross the street without your Mommy.
what happened to the video? it's been removed everywhere
where'd you hide the body...what's consuming you great breakup song
McMurtry is a genius. His lyrics are crazy good. Doesn't hurt to have Larry McMurtry's genes yo..
Feudi Pandola Checkout James kid Curtis.Hes a bad ass too just like James and Larry!
Feudi Pandola James mom is a College Teacher
Thank's for posting this Bro!
