She Didn’t Lie
Garland Jeffreys
Each and every word of wisdom
That my father said
Is passing through a hidden chamber
Inside of my head
Childhood dreams have faded yeh
Soon they will return
Memories and lessons that I learn
She didn’t lie and He didn’t lie (oh no)
She didn’t lie and He didn’t lie
Mama Mama Mama Mama
Do you hear me call
Oh I’m your favorite son
The one you love the most of all
And what about the time
We’re all passing through
It kills me in my throat
All the people in the city
Try’na’ stay afloat
Railroad tracks, cold cold facts
We all havе had a few
Jealousy, ole man troublе
I have seen him too
Racehorse Lady a’ midnite Rider
Standin’ in the rain
Hobo tramps and vicious vamps
Usin’ sweet sweet cocaine
