(d. johnson/j. walker/c. cawte/s. turner)
Got a robert johnson photograph that you didnt know exists
Even got his autograph, let you have it for a kiss
Im a liar baby but I only lie for you
There is nothin in this world I wouldnt do for you
I met memphis minnie lola(? ) and she taught me all I know
Told me how to sing the blues when that lonesome whistle blows
Im a liar baby but you know its just for fun
Dont know minnie lola(? ) so put away your gun
Well Ive lied about my name and lied about my age
Told so many damned lies and you know Ive got away
Well Ive lied around the world and I lied about the news
So its me youll belive when Ive lied about the blues
- guitar solo -
Me and john lee hooker played a muddy water song
Working on the chain gang in the alabama sun
Im a liar baby but I only lie for you
There is nothin in this world I wouldnt do for you
Im a liar baby but you know its just for fun
Dont know minnie lola(? ) so put away your gun
Lying about the blues
