Somewhere south of the border Headin' for a doll serenade Taking more than we aughta' Shakin' off the masquerade Lonely, she decided to see ya' Get enough for her on the side When the heat arrived at the motel Whole town stayed inside Some lie for love Some lie for fame Some lie for trust Some lie in vain Some lie for love Some lie for gain But I lie for you In the pouring rain Move on up to the Bayou With the same old set of rules You get nothin' for nothin' And that's a fact When you're tied to the ship of fools Alice looking over her shoulder Like a Chinese diplomat Daring anyone to hold her With a smile like a Cheshire cat Some lie for love Some lie for fame Some lie for trust Some lie in vain Some lie for love Some lie for gain But I lie for you In the pouring rain Shakin' to a halt on a Voodoo Second oldest trick in the book No one does it quite like you do When you start you can never Stop...never stop On my way to a seance Met a gypsy renegade Crossed my palm with silver In my heart put a jagged stake Some lie for love Some lie for fame Some lie for trust Some lie in vain Some lie for love Some lie for gain But I lie for you In the pouring rain
