Lie Lyrics
Well, Ive been swinging through these swinging doors for, aww, goin on probably about 9 years now, maybe even 10
And
I watch old Joe at the end of the bar with another hot woman on his one good arm and they walk out for a while and he
comes back in smilin, again
So I finally had to ask old Joe, Man, whats your secret to success, your power of
persuasion
over the opposite sex
And he says, Son, well, honestly, its pretty simple. He said, I just kinda walk up and buy her
a
drink and open up my mouth and
Chorus 1: Lie
I tell her Im a movie star
I just flew into town to buy this bar
Im
only here tonight, thats right
I gotta go, yeah, were filming on location down in Mexico
Would you believe that I
got
the leading role?
Thats right, honey, I beat out a lot of folks that youd probably know.
Oh, a man has got to do
what a
mans gotta do
Anything it takes to make her think youre cool
Ah, you got nothing to lose, so go on and try
Just
walk
right up and smile and look her dead in the eye
And lie
Thats right lie
So I tried and tried a couple weekends and
it
was like strike 1, strike 2, strike out again
But I narrowed it down, and I scratched it out, and I came up with
something
that without a doubt I knew, I was gonna make old Joe proud
And I go up and Id say
Hi Honey, whatcha doing for the
rest of your life
Ive been waiting such a long, long time
And you know what honey?
Meetin you here, man, it just
really feels like fate
Oh I, I bet you didnt see me as a marrying type
Lets take it slow I dont just want one
night, oh no
darlin
If youre looking for that you might as well look somewhere else
Well, because Im just not that kind of guy
And
kids, oh I love kids
Dogs, in-laws, and a piece of land
Dirty diapers in my mini van
Aw man, I can hardly wait
Oh a
man has got to do what a mans gotta do
Anything it takes to make her think youre cool
Aw, you got nothin to lose so
go on and try
Just walk right up, and smile, and look her dead in the eye
You know what you got to do, lie
Thats
right
you gotta lie
Sometimes you gotta lie
And
I watch old Joe at the end of the bar with another hot woman on his one good arm and they walk out for a while and he
comes back in smilin, again
