Lyrics New Edition – That’s Why I Lied

Intro
Listen up ma I got something to tell you

Verse 1
Theres no kiss from you when I’m leavin in the moring

Brige 1
I hit the bar by a drink
Sippin slow just to think
That a star would think go cheat
She said it looks like you need a friend
The lonely girl is knocking let me in
We can leave in delay
Take my mind off this pain
Do golden things in the mariot suite
Tell wifey that I might be workin
Hope I never have to say I lied

Chorus
To keep my six
To keep my house to still be here to work things out
To find some way babe
To make it up to you
Thats why I lied
To keep your health
To keep your kin
To still be here to raise our kids
To keep my ring babe I couldn’t tell the truth

Verse 2

Bridge 2
I hit the bar by a drink
Sippin slow just to think
That a star would think go cheat
She said it looks like you need a friend
The lonely girl is knocking let her in
Whatever no delay
Take my mind off this pain
Do golden things on the mariot suite
I know I said that I was working late
But you found out today I lied

Chorus

Verse 3
From the moment I heard you say you leavin (to go)
It was the words I though couldn’t happen fa sho
I’m already missin your lovin and laughter
The moring after
It’s not a whole with out you here
I swear I learn my lesson babe

Chorus

Outro
Strickly for the ladies
My black sistas
Strickly for the ladies
