It aint complicated
Well Ive grown to hate it
I never liked the taste of crow
But baby I ate it
They tried to warn me
They said that you were ornery
So dont bring me those big brown eyes and tell me that youre sorry
You might as well throw gasoline on a fire
The way you lie
You lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich mans floor
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking in the sunshine on my porch
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie
That aint my perfume, I bet she had a curfew
You told me you were out with the boys and baby I believed you
So why you lookin so nervous
You know you kind of deserve this
I ought to kill you right now
And do the whole wide world a service
Well my daddys gonna straighten you out
Like a piece of wire, like a piece of wire
The way you lie
You lie like the man with the slicked back hair who sold me that Ford
Yeah you lie like a pine tree in the back yard after last months storm
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie
Well I tell you what Im gonna do
Im gonna drive to the big old muddy river
Im gonna park my car in the middle of the mile long bridge
And then Im gonna cry
Well maybe just a little
Then Im gonna slip off the ring that you put on my finger
And give it a big old fling and watch it sink
Down, down, down
And there its gonna lie until the Lord comes back around
Because you lie like a priceless
Persian rug on a rich mans floor
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking in the sunshine on my porch
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at the grocery store
It just comes so dang natural to you
The way you lie
The way you lie
Well its what you do, its who you are
