Lying Baby BluesShe lied when she told me
she was feeling fine,
she lied when she told me
she was truly mine.
She lied when she told me
I could have a piece of pie,
she lied when she told me
she would never make me cry.

Well my baby is a liar,
she never plays it square.
But I'm crazy about my baby,
so I'm not sure I care.

She lied when she told me
to trust in what would be,
she lied when she told me
there were peaches on the tree.
She lied when she told me
she would take me on a trip,
she lied when she told me
the flood was just a drip.

Well my baby is a liar,
she never plays it square.
But I'm crazy about my baby,
so I'm not sure I ca
Let there be
Let there be silence. Let the senator rise
and open his mouth to tell his lies
and nothing come out. Let the senator sit.

Let there be silence. Let the red light glow
to begin the lies on the TV show
and nothing be heard. Let the light go out.

Let there be silence. Let the old men begin
to tell their old lies over again
and there be no sound. Let the old men stop.

Let there be silence. Let the ears forget
the sound of all that the liars said,
the drawl and bark. Let the ears rest.
Hard BluesSometimes you will bend,
sometimes you will break.
Sometimes you will bend,
sometimes you will break.
It may not be a choice
that you get to make.

When the breaker blows through
and you're standing alone --
when the breaker blows through
and you're standing alone,
you will feel what it does
right down to the bone.

Be canny and careful
as you go on your way.
Be canny and careful
as you go on your way.
And I hope you do not
meet the breaker today.
