Lies

Tried to hide my smile and change my ways
I tried to keep you my only one
but with dirty hair and bad things to say
I couldn't turn down all that fun

Mama, that aint right
No, Daddy, that aint right

Mama told me not to be here
and mama warned me about too much fun
said it'd rot my teeth like candy
told me "love's a smoking gun"

Never promised not to tell no lies
never promised not to tell no lies
never promised not to tell no lies
and my secrets stay mine
I never promised not to tell you no lies

Thought I'd be the one to keep you
you thought you'd never get left behind
and went I went running wild, dear
you thought you were still on my mind

Well, mama, that ain't right
daddy, that ain't right

Saved your softest words for me
Ya let 'em drip right down my back
Like sugar pouring into tea
thought I'd fill in all you lack
and that ain't alright

Never promised not to tell no lies
never promised not to tell no lies
never promised not to tell no lies
and my secrets stay mine
I never promised not to tell you no lies

Never promised not to tell no lies
never promised not to tell no lies
never promised not to tell no lies
and my secrets stay mine
I never promised not to tell you no lies
