(Tom T. Hall)

Lying Jim, lying Jim
One of our local brothers
Hey, there lying Jim
Come on tell us another.

Now ole lying Jim got cought one time
A stealin' a bunch of chickens
The neighbor all got upset
That the law went out to get him.

Jim was sittin' there eatin' the leg
And the law said what have you done
Jim said I was just passin' that house
And that chickens followed me home.

Lying Jim, lying Jim
One of our local brothers
Hey, there lying Jim
Come on tell us another.

Now, ole lying Jim got drunk one time
He passed right out in church
Fell right off the front row pew
Someone said Lord, he's hurt.

Next mornin' ole Jim sobered up
Out on the preacher's farm
He said preacher I was wrestlin' the devil
And that wrestler broke my arm.

Lying Jim, lying Jim
One of our local brothers
Hey, there lying Jim
Come on tell us another.

--- Instrumental ---

Now ole lying Jim was broke one time
And he tried to borrow money
Now some thought Jim was terrible
Some folks thought Jim was funny.

They said Jim, we'll give you thirty dollars
Just for one more lie
Jim said, boys I ain't got time
My old rich uncle just died.

Lying Jim, lying Jim
One of our local brothers
Hey, there lying Jim
Come on tell us another.

Now Jim was seein' the neighbor's wife
And the man came home from work
Ole Jim grabbed the clothes to run
But he only got his shirt.

Well, round and round that house they went
And Jim was just in the kitchen
Jim said I was just showin' your wife
Where I got bit by kitten.

Lying Jim, lying Jim
One of our local brothers
Hey, there lying Jim
Come on tell us another...
