Running Out of Lies

Running Out of Lies - Etta James (埃塔·詹姆絲)

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 my lipstick oh its off my face yeah

You can rest assured my man's no fool

He 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 lies lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

Lies lies lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

Please say goodbye

I've got too many alibis Oh yes I do

Well I'm spreading spreading myself

A little too thin

Trying to do the job yeah of too many women

You can rest assured my man's no fool

He 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 lies lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

Lies lies lies

Getting hard to think of an alibi

My man ain't no fool

He can tell

He can tell just as good that

I been out with somebody else oh yes he can

You know a lot of times I don't wanna talk about it

But 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

Etta you oughta be ashamed of yourself

You know you got a good man

And you oughta treat him 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

Etta you oughta be ashamed of yourself

You know you been wrong yes you have

A lot of women out there

A lot of women out there been wrong

I'm taking right now

You oughta go to you your man and tell him hony sorry baby

Oh baby sorry for taking you through all of these changes

So sorry baby So sorry that I did you wrong

Sorry that I broke your heart baby

And it seem like to me

I'm running out of lies

It's getting hard getting hard hard hard hard

Getting hard getting hard
