(d. johnson/j. walker/c. cawte/s. turner)
Got a robert johnson photograph that you didn't know exists
Even got his autograph, let you have it for a kiss
I'm a liar baby but I only lie for you
There is nothin' in this world I wouldn't 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
I'm a liar baby but you know it's just for fun
Don't know minnie lola(? ) so put away your gun
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/d/dr+feelgood/lying+about+the+blues_20043131.html ]
Well I've lied about my name and lied about my age
Told so many damned lies and you know I've got away
Well I've lied around the world and I lied about the news
So it's me you'll belive when I've 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
I'm a liar baby but I only lie for you
There is nothin' in this world I wouldn't do for you
I'm a liar baby but you know it's just for fun
Don't know minnie lola(? ) so put away your gun
Lying about the blues
(repeat to fade)
