Thread Name: Lyr Add: Oh Babe It Ain't No Lie (Elizabeth Cotten
Subject: Lyr Add: IT AIN'T NO LIE^^
I learned an Elizabeth Cotten version of it from Stefan Grossman... Oh Babe, Ain't No lie, with lyrics:

One old woman in this town
Keeps on tellin' her lies on me.
I wish to my Lord, that woman would die
She's telling her lies on me.


Chorus: Oh babe, ain't no lie.
Oh babe, ain't no lie.
Oh babe, ain't no lie.
This life I'm living is very hard.



I've been all around this whole wide world
I just got home today.
I work all the day and give my money all to you
What more can I do.


Chorus:^^
