Holiday Inn movie - I Can't Tell A Lie lyrics

rate me

<br>

<br>

I could say that you're homely<br>

Just as homely as pie<br>

But this is Washington's Birthday<br>

And I've got to say you're beautiful<br>

'Cause I can't tell a lie<br>

<br>

I could say that you're stupid<br>

Nothing up in your crown<br>

But this is Washington's Birthday<br>

And the truthful he<br>

Of the cherry tree<br>

Would look down on me<br>

And frown<br>

<br>

I could say that I hate you if I try<br>

But I've got to say I love you<br>

'Cause it's February the twenty-second<br>

And I can't tell a lie<br>

<br>
