Oh Babe, It Ain’t No Lie
Been all around this whole round world
And I just got back today
I work all the week, honey, and I give it all to you
Honey baby what more can I do

Oh babe, it ain't no lie
Oh babe, it ain't no lie
Oh babe, it ain't no lie
You know this life I'm living is mighty high

One old woman, Lord, in this town
Keep a-telling her lies on me
Wish to my soul that old woman would die
Keep a-telling her lies on me

Oh babe, it ain't no lie
Oh babe, it ain't no lie
Oh babe, it ain't no lie
You know this life I'm living is very high

Been all around this whole round world
And I just got back today
Work all week, honey, and I get home to you
Honey baby what more can I do

Oh babe, it ain't no lie
Oh babe, it ain't no lie
Oh babe, it ain't no liе
You know this life I'm living is very high
