G              C
Some old lady, in this town. 
      G                D       G
Keeps telling all them lies on me. 
G          G7            C 
Wish to my soul that old lady would die. 
     G                D       G
Stop telling all them lies on me. 

D                    G
Oh babe, it ain't no lie.

Oh babe, it ain't no lie.

Oh babe, it ain't no lie. 
            D              G                          
this life I lead is mighty high. 

Been all around this whole wide world
Honey babe I just got back today
I've been saving all of my love for you
Honey baby what more can I do

Oh babe, it ain't no lie (etc.)
