Twenty-Five Lies (09-28-54) - Guitar Slim, Jones

Now the first lie you told me was about your age

The second lie you told me that you was disengaged

The third was the worst lie, above the other two

With your man all night «I stay at home my mother!»

But I really do despise any woman that tells evil lies

Now the fourth and the fifth and the sixth and the seventh

The eight and the ninth and the tenth and the eleventh

On the twelfth I checked your bag just to see if you was right

But when I found they all was wrong then we had a long fight

'Cause I really do despise any woman that tells evil lies

Now the thirteen and fourteen was awful bad

But the fifteen and sixteen made me sad

The seventeen and eighteen was awful good

But the nineteen and twenty lies really hurt

'Cause I really do despise any woman that tells evil lies

Now the twenty-first and second lies made me mad

But the twenty-third and four lies made me glad

I called up a risk taker, might as well

Because the twenty-fifth lie was just too bad to tell

But when I add it to my file, I found you told me twenty-five lies
