If You Tell a Lie by The McCoys Lyrics

[Verse 1}
If you tell a lie
You know it's gonna hurt me and make me cry
You won't have to wonder the reason why
I said goodbye

[Verse 2]
And if you are untrue
You know it's gonna hurt me and make me blue
And that's when I'll be takin' my leave of you
I'll say goodbye

{Chorus]
If you tell a lie
If you tell a lie

[Bridge]
All you gotta do is be a good girl (Good girl)
And that's not asking very much of you
All I ever wanted was a good girl, yeah
One who would be true
I'd give all my love, too
[Verse 3]
But if you tell a lie
You know it's gonna hurt me and make me cry
You won't have to wonder the reason why
I said goodbye

[Chorus]
If you tell a lie
If you tell a lie

[Outro]
If you tell a lie
If you tell a lie
If you tell a lie
