Mirrors Don’t Lie

Written by Merle Haggard

Mirrors don't lie, a mirror won't lie
So don't be lookin' if you can't stand to see
Mirrors don't lie, a mirror won't lie
I know it's so 'cause one just told the truth on me

Facing the music won't be easy
Cause wine and roses leave a jagged scar
I thought I knew just where to quit and draw the line
But today I know for sure I've gone too far

Mirrors don't lie, a mirror won't lie
So don't be lookin' if you can't stand to see
Mirrors don't lie, a mirror won't lie
I know it's so 'cause one just told the truth on me

Now tracing my footsteps won't be easy
Cause wine and roses leave a clouded mind
I never worried about much about night before
Cause the morning after left me nearly blind

Mirrors don't lie, a mirror won't lie
So don't be lookin' if you can't stand to see
Mirrors don't lie, a mirror won't lie
I know it's so 'cause one just told the truth on me
I know it's so 'cause one just told the truth on me
