Artist/Band: Delbert McClinton
Lyrics for Song: Lie No Better
Lyrics for Album: One Of The Fortunate Few [1997]



Here you come draggin' in

Three a.m. again

Grinnin' that silly grin

Smellin' just like sin



Holdin' up that alibi that's tissue paper thin

Diggin' down deeper and deeper

In that hole you're already in



If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better than that

You might as well tell the truth



I know you been foolin' around

With some fool from way 'cross town

You're tearin' our good thing down

Makin' me out your clown

Lookin' for excuses that you know can't be found



If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better than that

You might as well tell the truth



You say you was gone with that girl from up the street

But I know better

She called here lookin' for you and she told me

Said you never met her



And you could be more discreet

With your love letters

And honey, I smell some other man

All over your cashmere sweater



If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie not better than that



If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better

If you can't lie no better than that

You might as well tell the truth
