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
Well 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
And you lie like a coon dog basking in the sunshine on my porch
Well, you lie like a penny in the 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 youre gonna deserve this
I oughta 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 slick back hair who sold me that Ford
And, you lie like a pine tree in the back yard after last months storm
Well, you lie like a penny in the parking lot at the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie
Well, Ill tell you what Im gonna do
Im gonna drive into the big ol muddy river
And then Im gonna cry well maybe just a little
Then Im gonna slip off the ring that you put on my finger
Give it a big ol fling and watch it sink
Down, down, down
There its gonna lie
Until the Lord comes back around
Because you lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich mans floor
You lie like a coon dog basking in the sunshine on my porch
Well, you lie like a penny in the 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
