“Lies” – Nancy Sinatra, Boots (1966)

Songs called “Lies”, 11th in a series

If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll recognize this as a cover of the previously posted Song called “Lies” #4 by The Knickerbockers. I know it’s cheating to double up like this, but it’s Nancy Sinatra, off the same album as “These Books Are Made for Walkin’”, so I couldn’t help it.

Lyrics (note clever gender-swap from the Knickerbockers version)

Lies, lies,
You’re telling me that you’ll be true.
Lies, lies,
That’s all I ever get from you.
Tears, tears,
I shed a million tears for you.
Tears, tears,
And now you’re loving somebody new.

Someday I’m gonna be happy,
I don’t know when just now.
Lies, lies,
You’re breaking my heart.

You think you’re such a smart boy,
And I’ll believe what you say.
Who do you think you are boy?
To lead me on this way-way.

Lies, lies,
I can’t believe a word you say.
Lies, lies,
I’m gonna make you sad someday.

Someday you’re gonna be lonely,
And you want find me around.
Lies, lies,
You’re breaking my heart.

Someday I’m gonna be happy,
I don’t know when just now.
Lies, lies,
You’re breaking my heart.

You think you’re such a smart boy,
And I’ll believe what you say.
Who do you think you are boy?
To lead me on this way-way.

Lies, lies,
I can’t believe a word you say.
Lies, lies,
I’m gonna make you sad someday.

Someday you’re gonna be lonely,
And you want find me around.
Lies, lies,
You’re breaking my heart.

Lies, you’re breaking my heart.
Man you’re breaking my heart.
