Lies and Green Eyes
I saw her riding in the moonlight
She rode lonely with tears in her eyes
He'll be a memory tomorrow
But tonight she's dealin' with his lies
Her daddy had been a wand'rin' man
Mama had told her to choose with care
She fell for a cowboy with blue eyes
He told her he loved her golden hair
They planned a wedding for early June
Then a home, laughter, a child or two
She hadn't foreseen that green eyed gal
Who bed her cowboy for somethin' to do
Now she rides alone 'neath pale moonlight
And knows his memory will be sad
She'll deal with his lies and his blue eyes
And hope cowboys don't all turn out bad
