A Dead Man Doesn't Lie
Hmm
Gonna ask the preacher why
I shot a man to watch him die
Cos I heard a story says
A dead man doesn't lie
No
A dead man doesn't lie
I'd always listen to what he'd say
He put his hands together to pray
Tell me of dues we're to pay
But a dead man doesn't lie
No
A dead man doesn't lie
Oh
But today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
If you forsake her
Oh today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Ohh
Mmm
As he looked upon the skys
I watched his eyes glow in the light
I saw through his disguise
And a dead man doesn't lie
No
A dead man doesn't lie
Oh
But today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Oh today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Oh
Mmm
I laid his bed beneath the stars
As I placed the coins upon his eyes
While the righteous falls to die
Now this dead man doesn't lie
No
Now this dead man doesn't lie
Oh
But today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
On today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Oh
Mmm
(This dead man doesn't lie)
The coins have payed the toll
(This dead man doesn't lie)
Now the ferryman got his soul
(This dead man doesn't lie)
The coins have payed the toll
(This dead man doesn't lie)
Now the ferryman got his soul
Gonna ask the preacher why
I shot a man to watch him die
Cos I heard a story says
A dead man doesn't lie
No
A dead man doesn't lie
I'd always listen to what he'd say
He put his hands together to pray
Tell me of dues we're to pay
But a dead man doesn't lie
No
A dead man doesn't lie
Oh
But today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
If you forsake her
Oh today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Ohh
Mmm
As he looked upon the skys
I watched his eyes glow in the light
I saw through his disguise
And a dead man doesn't lie
No
A dead man doesn't lie
Oh
But today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Oh today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Oh
Mmm
I laid his bed beneath the stars
As I placed the coins upon his eyes
While the righteous falls to die
Now this dead man doesn't lie
No
Now this dead man doesn't lie
Oh
But today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
On today he met his maker
And he's measured by the undertaker
Scorn a woman if you forsake her
You forsake her
Oh
Mmm
(This dead man doesn't lie)
The coins have payed the toll
(This dead man doesn't lie)
Now the ferryman got his soul
(This dead man doesn't lie)
The coins have payed the toll
(This dead man doesn't lie)
Now the ferryman got his soul
