It Would Be a Doggone Lie - Autry Inman

Well the sun come up this morning

And I jumped out of bed

I was feelin' fine till I remembered

Remembered what my baby said

Last night while we were talkin'

She broke the news to me

Well she said today she's leavin'

And now she's a fancy free

I could say that I don't worry

I could say that I won't cry

I could say that I won't miss her

But it would be a doggone lie

Well did you ever try to stop breathin'

Well it just can't be done

So I'll have to find me somebody

To take her place while she's gone

When she gets tired of romance

She's gonna wanna come back

And I ain't gonna be foolish

I'm gonna take my baby back

Oh I could say that I don't worry

I could say that I won't cry

I could say that I won't miss her

But it would be a doggone lie

Well I could say that I don't worry

I could say that I won't cry

I could say that I won't miss her

But it would be a doggone lie
