I danced in the desert in the pouring rain Drank with the devil and forgot my name Walked with somebody when the morning came No one there to shame me for my youth Cause I wouldn't be with you And then I found me a lover who could play the bass He's kinda quiet but his body ain't Spent the days dreaming and the nights awake Doing things we know we shouldn't do Cause I wouldn't be with you Says he can't believe he found me Wrapped his arms around me I can't let him in You call me up and ask me how I've been I'll call you a bluffin' Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' you lies Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' you lies No, I can't let them in You play me rough but I won't let you win So call me a bluffin' Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' you lies Keep on tellin' you lies Count down till the day they make come true And I fell for a vagabond a month at times Lied and said his bike was in the motor shop Choked my car once and made the tire pop Still we had some fun till I came to Cause I wouldn't be with you On the 4th of July I met a man, Pierre Lied about his age but I didn't care Soaking broke in English but the heart was there In those eyes the sky and ocean blue Cause I wouldn't be with you He says he can't believe he found me Wraps his arms around me I can't let him in You call me up and ask me how I've been I'll call you a bluffin' Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' you lies Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' you lies No, I can't let him in You play me rough but I won't let you in So call me a bluffin' Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' you lies Keep on tellin' you lies Count down till the day they make come true I'm counting down I'm still so down I'll come around
