Don't You Lie To Me

Lyrics: Tampa Red
Music: Tampa Red

Sung by Anna Rizzo with Kingfish in the mid-1980s.

Two kind of people I just can't stand
A cheating woman and a lying man
Don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
No don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
Because it make me so mad, I get evil as a woman can be

I remember, baby, you was looking for a fight
You said you loved me darling, all you wanted was to fight
Don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
No don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
Because it make me so mad, I get evil as a woman can be

My momma told me, daddy told me too
Lying and cheating was the thing you do
Don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
No don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
Because it make me so mad, I get evil as a woman can be

I told you, baby, a long time ago
You looked at me, gonna treat me so
Don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
No don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
Because it make me so mad, I get evil as a woman can be

Two kind of people I just can't stand
A cheating woman and a lying man
Don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
No don't you lie to me (don't you lie to me)
Because it make me so mad, I get evil as a woman can be
