Man's Ruin

I thought you loved my silly obsession

I didn't know you were feeling that way

You could've told me you were dealing deception

I would've stayed here and not gone that way

Your hair is looking much fuller than usual

Did the flea market take care of that?

The lights are low enough the creeps never notice

But I could see you from a mile away

Your love's a lie, but you try in your way

Don't you tell me about soul girl

You know I ain't got none of that

Your love's a lie and I see right through it

My eyes are open baby they ain't closed, no

I was blessed once; the cards I was handed

I didn't know what was coming of it

This little curse I got I think you have found it

It's irresistible but don't you give in

The dealer says boy you look empty handed

Don't bet heavy son or your gonna lose

Might come ahead at this table tonight kid

But that girl you got, she's writing your blues

Your love's a lie, but you try in your way

Don't you tell me about luck man

You can see that I ain't got none of that

Her love's a lie and I see right through it

My luck is changing man don't you know

Now don't you tell me about no soul girl

When you know I ain't got none of that

Your love's a lie and I see right through it

My eyes are open baby no no no no no no

Now don't you tell me about no luck man

Well you see I ain't got none of that

Her love's a lie and I see right through it

But my luck is changing now don't you know

Your love's a lie, but you try in your way

Your love's a lie, but you try in your way

Your love's a lie, but you try in your way
