Written by Merle Haggard
Mirrors don`t lie, a mirror won`t lie
So don`t be lookin` if you can`t stand to see
Mirrors don`t lie, a mirror won`t lie
I know it`s so `cause one just told the truth on me.
Facing the music won`t be easy
Cause wine and roses leave a jagged scar
I thought I knew just where to quit and draw the line
But today I know for sure I`ve gone too far
Mirrors don`t lie, a mirror won`t lie
So don`t be lookin` if you can`t stand to see
Mirrors don`t lie, a mirror won`t lie
I know it`s so `cause one just told the truth on me
Now tracing my footsteps won`t be easy
Cause wine and roses leave a clouded mind
I never worried about much about night before
Cause the morning after left me nearly blind
Mirrors don`t lie, a mirror won`t lie
So don`t be lookin` if you can`t stand to see
Mirrors don`t lie, a mirror won`t lie
I know it`s so `cause one just told the truth on me
I know it`s so `cause one just told the truth on me
