Why Would I Lie?

[Verse 1] Have you seen a better catch? Well, this guy's a waterproof match In a downpour of disappointments Get off your hands and knees Well, here's a flower between the weeds And any scratch, well, they're the ointment [Chorus] Why would I lie? Oh, I 'Cause you'd be pretty as a picture Why would lie? Oh, I I couldn't speak no higher I'll never make a choir [Verse 2] No grief would pacify Their jokes would make you die Or at least leave you in stitches So rich in guts and blood Their hands are covered in thе mud From building paths out of life's ditches [Chorus] Why would I lie? Oh, I This ship will sail by thе evening Why would I lie? Oh, I Would hate for you to watch them leaving Oh, I [Bridge] Doves will fly alright I swear Couldn't take a bite out a sweeter pear You could flip a kite on the breeze you'd share [Chorus] Why would I lie? Oh, I 'Cause you'd be pretty as a picture Why would lie? Oh, I I couldn't speak no higher I'll never make the choir [Post-Chorus] I, oh, I Why would l lie? Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie Why would I lie? Why would I lie? Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie Lie, lie, lie
