You said that you wanted every piece of me baby And when I showed you it all to you You glanced sideways and whispered maybe Oh how you gonna' lie to me in that evil way?
I took my bags down our creakin' wooden stairs As you were yelling pullin' up your hair How you gonna' say somethin' like that and stay a pair? Oh baby how you gonna' lie to me in that evil way?
Now I got no job an' I got no baby next to me Got no friends and my car's just been lifted Cops sirens are whining and I cannot bear to look an' see Baby how you gonna' lie me down in that evil way?
Telephone in my place is ringing but I don't have the strength To lift that receiver and hear what you got to say It rings all night can't get no sleep I'm at a strings length Baby how you gonna keep me up in that evil way?
Saw you crossing the street in a wishy wash way yesterday With a man I knew back when I was 22 Suit worn tight even though it was the hottest month in May Baby how you gonna lie to me in that evil way?
