<b>I Would Lie to Tell the Truth</b> by <i>Lucky Hodnett</i><br />

(Joel Wade, Jeffrey A. Hodnett, & Ruthie Steele / BMI)

(Verse1) That wasn't me you saw in her red sports car

That wasn't me drinking in that local bar

And I know you didn't see me in that corner booth

And to keep you from knowing

I would lie to tell the truth

Chorus: I would lie just to keep you

From knowing the truth

I would do anything

That a man has to do

Yes, it's true I love the night life

And I love you too

But I would lie to tell the truth

(Verse2) No that's not my car, at that cheap motel

The license plate numbers don't match my old Chevelle

No that's not the car, we loved in, in our youth

And to keep you from knowing

I would lie to tell the truth

(repeat chorus)

(Verse3) No that's not my message, you heard on my cell phone

To meet her after work, when she gets home

I swear I don't know any woman by the name of Ruth

And to keep you from knowing

I would lie to tell the truth

(repeat chorus)
