The Band Perry You Lie lyrics

It ain't complicated
Well I've 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 don't bring me those big brown eyes
And tell me that you're sorry

Well, you might as well throw gasoline on a fire
The way you lie

You lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich man's 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 ain't 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 daddy's 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 month's 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 I'm gonna do
I'm gonna drive to the big old muddy river
I'm gonna park my car in the middle of the mile long bridge

And then I'm gonna cry
Well maybe just a little
Then I'm 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 it's gonna lie until the Lord comes back around

You lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich man's 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 it's what you do, it's who you are
