Mama Don't Tell Me Lies

Mama Don't tell me lies
Mama Don't tell me lies

I've had more lies than I can take
From well-planned schemes to subterfuge
These double-crossing enemies
Have gone and shot me in the blues

Mama never tells me lies, she only shoots me straight
But people out there telling lies, they do so to my face

People must not count their souls, and what they stand to lose
'Cuz every time they reload, they shoot me in the blues

Mama Don't tell me lies
Mama Don't tell me lies

I've had more lies than I can take
From well-planned schemes to subterfuge
These double-crossing enemies
Have gone and shot me in the blues

People think cause you believe a lie you are a fool
But it's a fool who tells a lie, but truth shall be your school

Sometimes you have to let what goes around come back to bite
But don't you go and shame your Lord by laughing at their plight

Mama Don't tell me lies
Mama Don't tell me lies

I've had more lies than I can take
From well-planned schemes to subterfuge
These double-crossing enemies
Have gone and shot me in the blues

(You were right, Mama, you told me they'd lie!)
