Somewhere south of the border, headin' for a doll serenade
Taking more than we oughta', shakin' off the masquerade
Lonely, she decided to see ya, get enough for her on the side
When the heat arrived at the motel, whole town stayed insideSome lie for love, some lie for fame
Some lie for trust, some lie in vain
Some lie for love, some lie for gain
But I lie for you baby, in the pouring rainMove on up to the bayou, with the same old set of rules
You get nothin' for nothin', and that's a fact, when you're tied
To the ship of fools, Alice looking over her shoulder, like a Chinese diplomat
Daring anyone to hold her, with a smile like a Cheshire catSome lie for love, some lie for fame
Some lie for trust, some lie in vain
Some lie for love, some lie for gain
But I lie for you babyShakin' to a halt on a voodoo, second oldest trick in the book
No one does it quite like you do, when you start you can never
Stop never stop, on my way to a Seance, met a gypsy renegade
Crossed my palm with silver, in my heart put a jagged stakeSome lie for love, some lie for fame
Some lie for trust, some lie in vain
Some lie for love, some lie for gain
But I lie for you babySome lie for love, some lie for fame
Some lie for trust, some lie in vain
Some lie for love, some lie for gain
But I lie for you baby, in the pouring rain
