Don't ask me 'bout tomorrow

Or tell me about my past

My heart is yours to borrow

Ain't nothing meant to last

 

I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

Don't ask too many questions

You don't want answers to

You don't like my direction

Hell, I won't follow you

 

I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

I told my dyin' daddy

That I had to run away

Looked him in the eyes

Said, "there ain't no other way"

So woman, if I tell you that I love you, be ok

 

'Cause I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

I love you in the morning

And when the day is done

But if you want my freedom

You know I'm bound to run

 

I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

I told my dyin' daddy

That I had to run away

Looked him in the eyes

Said, "there ain't no other way"

So woman, if I tell you that I love you, be ok

 

'Cause I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi.
