Lee Ann Womack Lyrics

Album: Something Worth Leaving Behind

You Should Have Lied Lyrics

(Matraca Berg/Angelo)

Should've known you'd come around

Did your conscience bother you?

Well, I guess I forgive you now, but that's all that I can do

Ain't nothing lonely as the truth

Chorus: You should've lied to me baby

You should've tried just a little bit harder now baby

You see my pride has been talking to me lately

And you can't come back, you can never come back

I won't stand another woman

You should've lied

You overestimated me

Thinking I would understand

Believing that your honesty

Would make me see a bigger man

Was that all part of your plan 

(Repeat Chorus twice) 

You should've lied

You should've lied to my baby

You should have lied 

(Repeat Chorus)
