Now you know that I know
That you ain't no good
And you wouldn't
Tell the truth
Even if you could
Lying is a habit
You practice wherever you go
Well, you may fool the rest of this world
But you know that I know
Now you told some of my friends
That you'd turn me down
But I wouldn't take you
If you're the last gal in town
If I had wanted you
I could've got you long ago
Well, you may fool the rest of this world
But you know that I know
So, baby, when you pass me
Don't you give me the run-around
'Cause if you recall correctly
I'm the guy that brought you to town
To some folks you may be
Mrs So-and-So
But don't turn your nose up at me
'Cause you know that I know
The last time I saw you
Your pretty hair was red
But today I see you've got
Black hair on your head
You say you've got you a new man
With plenty of dough
But, baby, you may fool him
But you know that I know
So, baby, when you pass me
Don't you give me the run-around
'Cause if you recall correctly
I'm the man that brought you to town
To some folks you may be
Mrs So-and-So
But, baby, you may fool them
But you know that I know
Yes you may fool the rest of this world
But you know that I know
That you ain't no good
And you wouldn't
Tell the truth
Even if you could
Lying is a habit
You practice wherever you go
Well, you may fool the rest of this world
But you know that I know
Now you told some of my friends
