I'm tired of lying peeping and hiding

And low class places Oh I'm so tired baby

I'm tired of worrying whenever I come home late

With your lipstick traces

Oh yes I am babe

You can rest assured my woman's no fool

She can tell I been loving you

Stealing your love is getting harder and harder

The excuses I been giving just won't hold water

I'm running out of lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

Running out of lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

Please say goodbye

I've got too many alibis

Oh yes I do

I'm spreading myself a little too thin

Trying to do the job of too many men

You can rest assured my woman's no fool

She can tell just as good I been loving you

Stealing your love is getting harder and harder

The excuses I been giving just won't hold water

I'm running out of lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

Running out of lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

No my woman ain't no fool y'all

She can tell just as good that

I been out with somebody else

You know a lot of times

I don't wanna talk about it I try

I try to get it off of my mind

But then my conscience

You know everybody got a conscience

My conscience get to bothering me

And when I try to go to sleep at night

Seem like to me I can hear my conscience say

Johnnie you oughta be ashamed of yourself

You know you got a good woman

And you oughta treat her right

I made a deal with my conscience

That if my conscience didn't bother me

I sure wouldn't bother my conscience

But every now and then

It comes around to me and tells me

Johnnie you know you been wrong yes you have

A lot of fellas out there been wrong

You oughta go to your baby and tell her

Honey oh I'm sorry for taking you

Through all of these changes

I'm sorry baby

I'm sorry that I did you wrong

I'm sorry I broke your heart baby

And it seem like to me

I'm running out of lies

It's getting hard to think of an alibi
