You Better Let That Liar Alone

Just let me tell you how a liar will do

He's always coming with something new

He'll steal your heart with false pretense

Making out like he's your bosom friend

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

Better let that liar alone

When a liar takes the notion to bend the truth

He'll lay around his neighbors and get the news

And nearly every day when you look out

You can see that liar coming to your house

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

Better let that liar alone

He'll tell you such a lie, it'll surprise your mind

He'll mix a little truth for to make it shine

When he gets his business fixed just right

Then that liar's going to cause a fight

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

Better let that liar alone

He studies up a lie, he'll tell it so smooth

You'll think absolutely that it must be true

And he'll urge you out for to trace the tale

And if you don't mind, you'll be put in jail

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

Better let that liar alone

When everything's in perfect peace

Then comes that liar with his deceit

A hypocrite liar both keeps up a fuss

They're both very bad but a liar's the worse

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

If you don't want to get in trouble

Better let that liar alone
