I will not lie

I will not lie

I will not lie

I will not lie for you



Everytime I see you fooling around on him

I can't help but remember

That he calls me his friend

It's only right for me to tell you

When it's the wrong thing to do

It's only right that you should know

If he comes to me

I will not lie for you

No, I won't lie for you



It's hard enough to see him stumbling blind

I refuse to see him lose you and me at the same time

It's only right for me to tell you

When it's the wrong thing to do

It's only right that you should know

If he comes to me

I will not lie for you

No, won't lie for you



To come here as your friend and have you come on like my lover

Like to bring things to an end

Between myself and my brother

If it was any other man I would not interfere

But if you come on to me again

I don't see how to stand clear



It's only right for me to tell you

When it's the wrong thing to do

It's only right that you should know

If he asks me

I will not lie for you

Mama, I won't lie for you



If it was any other man I would not interfere

When you come on to me again

I don't see how to stand clear



It's only right for me to tell you

When it's the wrong thing to do

It's only right that you should know

If he asks me

I will not lie

I Will not lie

I will not lie

I Will not lie for you



No, I won't lie for you

Little girl, I won't lie for you

No, I won't lie to him for you

I will not lie for you
