Can’t Fool Your Own Blood

[Verse 1]
I think that mama's drinkin' again
There's a sparkle in her eye
And how I love to see her laughin'
Oh, do I
God knows I prayed for that smile
She got a suite at the new hotel downtown
That ain't something she does
Then tried me call me out of the blue and act like
That was someone she was

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can't fool your own blood

[Chorus]
You can lie to a liar
Go ahead and flame the fire
And burn down everything you love
You can steal from a thief
I'll act like I believe
But you can't fool your own blood

[Verse 2]
And I know roads that I don't walk down
I don't walk down, not no morе
They take me placеs I don't wanna go
Don't wanna go again
But now and then I take a wrong turn
And then the lost highway claims me its own
I've got a voice in my head tells me it's fine no matter what it does
And got a broken compass in my pocket
It's telling me where it is I come from

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can't fool your own blood

[Chorus]
You can lie to a liar
Go ahead and flame the fire
And burn down everything you love
You can steal from a thief
I'll act like I believe
But you can't fool your own blood

[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, oh

[Outro]
Mama, you can lie to a liar
Go ahead and flame the fire
And burn down everything you love
You can steal from a thief
I'll act like I believe
But you can't fool your own blood
No, no you can't fool
No, you can't fool
You can't fool your own blood
