Album:  Sweet and Sassy

Composer:  Micky Buckins / Barbara Wyrick



Tell me a lie

Say I look familiar

Though I know that you don¡¯t even know my name

Tell me a lie

Say ya just got into town

Even though I¡¯ve seen you here before

Just hangin¡¯ around



Umm, tell me a lie

Say you¡¯re not a married man

¡®Cause you don¡¯t know I saw you

Slip off your wedding band

Ooh, tell me a lie

Say ya got no place to stay

But you¡¯ll be glad to drive me home

¡®Cause it¡¯s on your way



Tell me a lie

When you take me home

(Tell me a lie)

I don¡¯t really want to spend the night alone

Tell me a lie

Don¡¯t worry about my sorrow

You¡¯ll be long gone tomorrow

And you won¡¯t have to see me cry

Just tell me a lie



Tell me a lie

Come on, tell me that you need me

And I¡¯ll pretend that it¡¯s for real

The way you want me to

Please, tell me a lie

When you¡¯re lying close beside me

And whisper when you hold me

Sweet words ¡°I love you¡±



Ooh, tell me a lie

When our night is almost over

And make it easy on us both

When it¡¯s time for you to go

Come on, tell me a lie

Say you¡¯d really like to stay

Just tell me one more lie

That you¡¯ll be back one day



Tell me a lie

When you take me home

(Tell me a lie)

I don¡¯t really want to spend the night alone

Tell me a lie

Don¡¯t worry about my sorrow

You¡¯ll be long gone tomorrow

And you won¡¯t have to see me cry

Just tell me a lie
