Lyrics for Song: Flattery Will Get You Everywhere
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits [Collectors' Choice] [2005]



(Liz Anderson)



I noticed how you smiled just now surprised that having seen

How I ate up your flattery then lick the platy clean

I've been so starved for pretty words are ever insincere

Till as for me flattery will get you everywhere.



So brag me up and make me smile and I'll do things your way

Say pretty words to me and I'll do anything you say

Don't worry if they're true or not the truth is I don't care

And as for me flattery will get you everywhere.



Another loves said hurtin' words outil our love was gone

He'd always get the shoe to fit that I'll have to put it on

Say words unkind and soon my mind would close from ear to ear

And as for me flattery will get you everywhere.



So brag me up and make me smile and I'll do things your way

Say pretty words to me and I'll do anything you say

Don't worry if they're true or not the truth is I don't care

And as for me flattery will get you everywhere.



And as for me flattery will get you everywhere...


Flattery Will Get You Everywhere

Lynn Anderson's 1972 recording of 'Flattery Will Get You Everywhere' stands as a quintessential example of her smooth, baroque-country vocal style. Released on her 'Greatest Hits' compilation, the track showcases her signature ability to blend traditional country melodies with a sophisticated, almost operatic delivery that defined her career. The song reflects the era's blend of romantic storytelling and polished production, capturing the essence of Anderson's work with Columbia Records. Her voice, often described as ethereal and clear, brings a unique texture to the ballad, distinguishing it from the harder-edged country sounds of her contemporaries. This recording remains a staple in her discography, illustrating her commitment to high-quality vocal performances and her ability to reinterpret classic themes with a modern sensibility.
