You Told A Fib - Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps

You Told A Fib

Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps

(Cliff Gallup - Gene Vincent, CAPITOL, 1956)

Well, look a-here baby you've been playin' up to me
We both know that it just can't be
You told me that you love me, but now I can see
That's where you told an f.i.b.
(Rock!)

Well, now give me that sweet talk, I wanna change my mind
'Cause I found you out in a nick of time
You told me you wanted me to be your turtle dove
But I can't make it off a-promises of love
That's where you lied, so baby, that's where you lied
That's where you lied, so baby, that's where you lied
Livin' off a-promises ain't for me
'Cause that's where you told an f.i.b.
(Rock, Cliff, go!)

That's where you lied, so baby, that's where you lied
That's where you lied, so baby, that's where you lied
Livin' off a-promises ain't for me
'Cause that's where you told an f.i.b.
(Rock!)

Well, look a-here baby you've been playin' up to me
We both know that it just can't be
You told me that you love me, but now I can see
That's where you told an f.i.b.

Well, now give me that sweet talk, I wanna change my mind
'Cause I found you out in a nick of time
You told me you wanted me to be your turtle dove
But I can't make it off a-promises of love
That's where you lied, so baby, that's where you lied
That's where you lied, so baby, that's where you lied
Livin' off a-promises ain't for me
'Cause that's where you told an f.i.b.
You told a fib, f.i.b...
