Lie To Me

Jonny Lang Lie To Me Lyrics
1.Lie To Me

Written:bruce mccabe and david z
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

Lie to me and tell me everything is all right
Lie to me and tell me that you'll stay here tonight
Tell me that you'll never leave,
And i'll just try to make believe
That everything you tell me is true

Lie to me, go ahead and lie to me

Lie to me, it doesn't matter anymore
It could never be what it was before
If i can't hold on to you
Leave me with somethin' i can hold onto,
For just a little while won't you let me be

Anyone can see
That you love him more than me
But right now, baby, let me pretend
That our love will never end

Lie to me, go ahead and lie to me


2.Darker Side

Written:bruce mccabe
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

Look at the man with the smile on his face
Looks like he's always feelin' good
Sometimes you might want to take his place
And sometimes i think that you would

When the sun is goin' down
And there is no place to hide
Even in the brightest light
You might lean toward the darker side

Look at the people, they learn how to lie so easy
They learn how to lie to get what they need
And after they got what they needed
It turns into a simple case of greed

When they no longer feel ashamed
And they've lost all sense of pride
Misery loves company
And it's lonely on the darker side

And when the party is over
And the music has died
You'll be dancin' to the music, baby
Somewhere on the darker side

Somewhere on the darker side


3.Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

Written:sonny boy williamson
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

A good morning little schoolgirl,
Can i go home with you?
Tell your mama and your daddy,
That i'm a little schoolboy too.

Baby i love you,
I just can't help help myself.

You're so good looking pretty babe,
I don't need nobody else.

Good morning little schoolgirl,
Can i go home with you?
Uh, uh, uh...

I'm gonna leave you baby,
About the break of day
On account of the way you treat me,
I've got to stay away.

A good morning little schoolgirl,
Can i go home with you?

Tell your mama and your daddy,
That i'm a little schoolboy too.

Come on pretty baby,
Oh you know i can't help myself.
Uh, uh, uh...

I'm gonna buy me an aeroplane,
To fly all over your town.
And tell everybody baby,
Lord knows you've been putting me down.

I can't stand it babe,
Just cannot help myself

Your're so young and pretty,
But you're lovin' somebody else

A good morning little schoolgirl,
Can i go home with you?
Uh, uh, uh...
Oh babe what you do to me,
I can't help myself.


4.Still Wonder

Written:kevin bowe
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

I wonder about her, i wonder where she went from here
Still wonder about her, but nothing's comin' in too clear
Since she left me all alone my days go by like years

Well i'm thinkin' about her and all the things she used to say
Still i'm thinkin' about her but something's getting in the way
I remember when she told me she would up and leave me someday

I drive around in circles through the city
Just waitin' for the lights to change
But right about when midnight hits me
Moonlight gets me feelin' kind of crazy

I wonder about her, does she still wear that same old ring
I still wonder about her and i know it ain't no big thing
Well she left me all alone now and i'm just waiting for my phone
to ring

I've been dreaming about her, i guess i never really knew
That living without her was more than i could ever do
Because she ain't comin' back, no she ain't comin' back
No she ain't comin' back cause there's nothin' left to come back
to


5.Matchbox

Written:ike turner
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

Yeah i'm tired of sighing
Tired of worrying you too
But i made up my mind baby
What i'm gonna do
I got my clothes in a matchbox
I'm gonna forget about you

But i tried to tell you many times
But i never could do it
You believe me baby
This time i'm through
I got my clothes in a matchbox
I'm gonna forget about you

Now when things get harder
Yeah and rough on you
Don't try to get me back now baby
'cause baby i'm through
I got my clothes in a matchbox
Gonna forget about you.

From the album lie to me

Seems like now days ain't nothin' meant to last
One day you've got it all and then it disappears so fast
And you know our love is on and off again
Well i know you wanna quit me, baby
But a quitter never wins

Well, you've walked out on our lovin'
But i've stayed through thick and thin
And you know our love is on and off again
I know you want to quit me
But a quitter never wins

Seems like now days love is a word that no one means
Ya said you'd never leave me
Then ya upped and walked right out on me
And now our love is on and off again
Well, i know you wanna quit me
But a quitter never wins

Well, i know you wanna quit me baby
But a quitter never wins
A quitter never wins

The biggest fool there ever was
I let you go
And now i can't survive without your touch
I need you so

But baby all you've got to do
Is tell me that you need me too

I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running back to you

Oh well i'd rather die a thousand deaths
Than to lose your love
But now i'm drowning in my loneliness
I can rise above - yeah again

Well just forgive me this one last time
And tell me baby you're still mine

I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running baby yeah
I hit the ground running back to you

Oh i hit the ground running

I hit the ground running back to you

Ah you know i'm coming
I'm coming back for you by now baby
So if you don't want me baby

9.Rack 'em Up

Written:bruce mccabe
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

I used to hang out, down at jack's pool hall
You go down there, don't do nothin' at all
You wanted to play some cards there was a game in the back
You wanted to shoot of somethin', you went and talked to jack
If you had a little money you was a grade a fool
There was a guy down there who used to shoot a little pool

Rack &em up
Rack &em up
Rack &em up
Rack &em up

Till the day he was dead,
That all they ever said was rack &em up
He didn't own a tv set, he didn't own no car
He ate whatever jack was makin' back behind the bar
They said he had a wife but, she left him in tears
He hadn't been home once in twenty-five years

Rack &em up
Rack &em up

They come from all over thinkin' they were pretty hot
They put the money on the table, wanna play the best we got
Nine in the corner, five in the side
Take a hundred dollar bill and just, let it ride
I'd tell him, 'listen hear sonny, there ain't no disaster
There ain't no shame in bein' beaten by a master'

Rack &em up
Rack &em up
Yea, rack &em up
Rack &em up, rack &em up

Til' the day he was gone, they said it all day long rack &em up


10.When I Come To You

Written:jonny lang and dennis morgan
Performed:jonny lang
From the album lie to me

When i'm all alone
When i'm feelin' blue
No one understands me, baby
Nobody but you

Through all the sleepless nights
And the rainy day til the sun is nowhere in view
The only way i make it through is when i come to you
And in my darkest hour, when the midnight shadows fall
Baby you got the power to make the angels come to call

I just hold you in my arms
And let music in my heart play the whole night through
When i come to you, i felt so brand new, when i come to you

When i come to you, you make it all right again
When i come to you, you keep me from the howlin' wind
And feel brand new, when i come to you


11.There's Got To Be A Change

Written:gwendolyn collins
Performed:jonny lang
Of the album lie to me

Oh, there's got to be a change
Things just can't stay the same
If i got any worse off
I'd have myself to blame

I've played the blues so long now
There ain't nothin' left for me to do
I just can't give it up
If i do my life would be through

Well now i've been to kentucky, chicago too
All over st. louis, ain't nothin' left to do, baby
But i'll play the blues for you, yes i will
Well i've been down to texas
To the international revenue

I ain't got no money now, honey now
Ain't nothin' left to do
Well i'll play the blues for you
