OH BABE IT AIN'T NO LIE
(C) Elizabeth Cotten arr. by Bob Dylan


Some old lady in this town
Keeps telling her those lies on me
I Wish to my soul that old lady would die
Stop telling her those lies on me

Oh babe it ain't no lie
Oh babe it ain't no lie
Oh babe it ain't no lie
This life I live is mighty high

Just through all around this whole round world
Honey babe I just got back today
Save all of my love for you
Honey babe what more can I say?

Some old lady in this town
Keeps telling lies on me
I wish to my soul that old lady would die
Stop turnin' those lies on me

Oh babe it ain't no lie
Oh babe it ain't no lie
Oh babe it ain't no lie
This life I live is mighty high
