Why oh why can't I lay this trouble down
Lies your lies keep comin back around
And round and round and round


You're a shot of whisky
Straight and smooth and killing me

You're like a prayer I should pray
You're like a sad song I can't help but sing along
You're all the pleasure and the pain


[Chorus]
Why oh why can't I lay this trouble down

Lies your lies keep comin back around
And round and round and round


You're a lesson I can't learn
I must love gettin burned
Stop drop and roll right in the flame

You're poison in a kiss that's just the way it is
You're like the sunshine in the rain


[Chorus]
Why oh why can't I lay this trouble down
Lies your lies keep comin back around

And round and round and round

You say you love me say you're sorry

I believe you every word
I guess I let you like a fool
I guess I get what I deserve

Next time you say goodbye

[Chorus]

Why oh why can't I lay this trouble down
Lies your lies keep comin back around
And round and round and round
