Telling Lies
[1st verse:]
Moon was slyly peeping from above
On a summer's night
Sally Brown and Joe were making love
'Neath the pale moonlight
Sally said, "I think I'd better go"
As she rolled her eyes
But foxy little Joe
Said, "There's a game I know
Called telling lies"
[Refrain:]
Telling lies
Telling lies
Say you never want to be
Near to me
Dear to me
Telling lies, close your eyes
Then a kiss or two
I'll steal and give them back to you
While telling lies
[2nd verse:]
Little Sally Brown and Joe were wed
She became his bride
"I will never marry you," she said
Then the knot was tied
Ev'ry morn he kisses her goodbye
Leaves her all alone
But 'fore he goes away
These words he'll always say,
"I won't come home"
Contando mentiras
[1er verso:]
La luna se asomaba astutamente desde arriba
En una noche de verano
Sally Brown y Joe estaban haciendo el amor
Bajo la luz de la pálida luna
Sally dijo, "Creo que es mejor que me vaya"
Mientras rodaba los ojos
Pero el astuto Joe
Dijo, "Hay un juego que conozco
Llamado contar mentiras"
[Estribillo:]
Contando mentiras
Contando mentiras
Di que nunca quieres estar
Cerca de mí
Querida para mí
Contando mentiras, cierra los ojos
Luego un beso o dos
Robaré y te los devolveré
Mientras cuento mentiras
[2do verso:]
La pequeña Sally Brown y Joe se casaron
Ella se convirtió en su esposa
"Nunca me casaré contigo", dijo
Luego se ató el nudo
Cada mañana él le da un beso de despedida
La deja completamente sola
Pero antes de irse
Estas palabras siempre dirá,
"No volveré a casa"
