Steppenwolf - Someone Told A Lie Lyrics
Words and music by John Kay and Bobby CochranSomeone told me about yourSomebody gossiped about myBut nobody warned us about thoseSomeone told a lieNow we don't trust each other's facesAnd I don't know what to think about you'Cause we can't stand in each other's placesAnd I can't trade with youWe've had times together where the sparks would flyBut in stormy weather we stood side by sideNow we're cold and distantWatching love roll byJust when truth was neededSomeone told a lieSome folks say I'm a sinnerSome people claim I'm a saintBut nobody knows who's the winnerThe truth was told too lateNow I was raised to believe that you're differentAnd I was told not to play with your kindDoes anyone know whyThey were so hell bent on poisoning our minds?Now we're cold and distantWatching love go byJust when truth was neededSomeone told a lieBut I'll do what I have toYou do what you canJust to keep on searching for the pride of manAll those tears we wasted wondering whyAll those years were wasted fighting liesBut I'll do what I have toYou'll do what you canJust to keep on searching for the pride of manBlack Leather Music, Inc., Cochin' Rockin' Publishing (BMI)
