That's Why I Lied
New Edition

(Ronnie)

Listen up ma, I got something to tell you, yea


(Ralph)

Gotta play the game


(Ronnie)

Strictly for the ladies


Verse 1

(Ralph)

There's so kisses from you, when I leaving in the morning

There's no roses for you, when I know I've hurt your feelings

Don't know what happen to us, girl I never saw it coming

How did love go downhill?

I think I know what cheatin men feel


[Hook:]

I hit the bar bought a drink slip it slow just to think

Then a star with a big Gucci

She said it looks like you need a friend

The lonely girl is knocking let me in

We can leave no delay take my mind off this pain

To go to bed in the Marriot Suite

Tell wifey that I might be working late

Or hope I never have to say I lied


[Chorus:]

To keep my s**, to keep my house (I'm sorry girl)

To still be here to work things out

To find some way babe to make it up to you

That's why I lied

To keep your hug, to keep your kiss

To still be here to raise our kids

To keep my ring babe I couldn't tell the truth

That's why I lied


Verse 2

So nervous these days got a feeling she'll be calling

I know hurt is on the way when I dream of angels fallen

There's no perfect way to say how my vows to you were broken

Who is that on the phone let me explain before go


[Hook:]

I hit the bar bought a drink slip it slow just to think

Then a star with a big Gucci

She said it looks like you need a friend

The lonely girl was knocking I let her in

We leave with no delay take my mind off this pain

To go to bed in the Marriot Suite

I know I said that I was working late

But you found out today I lied


[Chorus:]


From the moment I heard you say you're leavin (Don't go)

It was the worse I thought could happen (for sure)

I'm already missing your lovin your laughter the morning after

It's not a home without you here

I swear I learn my lesson baby


[Chorus:] (2x)


(Ronnie)

Strictly for the ladies, my black sistas

Strictly for the ladies, Latinas

Strictly for the ladies, play boy bunnies and all

Strictly for the ladies, come on
