  • Yeah, this town's been telling me
    I've done some things I never did
    Yeah, the grapevine starts with a glass of wine
    And you taking a sip
    Every word that you're saying's
    'Nother stab to my reputation
    And I can't take it anymore
    But you've opened that door

    Yeah, there's two sides to every breakup
    One's a lie and one's the truth
    One of 'em went down and one was made up
    But in the end we both lose
    Why can't we meet in the middle
    Call it even, call a truce
    If you quit telling lies about me
    I won't tell the truth about you (truth about you)

    Like how you picked a fight
    Every time you saw me get a text
    To make yourself feel better
    That you still talk to your ex
    Yeah, you told your friends, you told your mama
    That I'm the root of all the drama
    But we both know why this ended
    Girl, I caught you red-handed

    Yeah, there's two sides to every breakup
    One's a lie and one's the truth
    One of 'em went down and one was made up
    But in the end, we both lose
    Why can't we meet in the middle
    Call it even, call a truce
    If you quit telling lies about me
    Well, I won't tell the truth about you, oh

    Yeah, I truly wish the best for you
    So don't ruin the next for me
    'Cause you really don't want me to tell the truth
    For everyone to see, yeah

    That there's two sides to every breakup
    One's a lie and one's the truth
    One of 'em went down and one was made up
    In the end, we both lose
    Why can't we meet in the middle
    Call it even, call a truce
    Yeah, if you quit telling lies about me
    Well, I won't tell the truth about you
    (Won't tell the, won't tell the, won't tell the truth about you)
    Tell the truth about
    (Won't tell the, won't tell the, won't tell the truth about you) oh
    (Won't tell the, won't tell the, won't tell the truth about you)
    I don't wanna tell the truth
    (Won't tell the, won't tell the, won't tell the truth about you) Writer/s: Matt Alderman, Mitchell Tenpenny, Thomas Archer
