Story behind the song
I had the idea but a weak song in 1975. I resurected it a few years ago by incorporating a story very loosely based upon husband and step son...and then, at a critique session, it was suggested that the main character should be a girl. I also redid the background music from piano to guitar.
Lyrics
The Devil is a Liar By Susan Cantey © 2008 Verse 1: She walked on by...the beer and the wine... cell phone out, got her daddy on the line, Sick and tired, wants to come home... tears in her eyes as she hangs up the phone, It's hard to go straight with a monkey on your back, In her mind she hears the devil laugh! CHORUS: The devil is a liar, he’s a fear intensifier, dirty double crossin’ schemin’ demon straight from Hell, He’ll accuse you and he’ll abuse you, Dredge up doubts from deep within' ya... cause he knows you all too well, He'll try to put you down and drown you in the muck and the mire! But the devil…is a…li…ar Verse 2: Daddy looks down the road...whispers a prayer Porch light on, fingers running through grey hair Pouring rain...ticking clock... where can she be? How the devil twists his thoughts. What a lousy father now your daughter's dead, The devil likes to play with all the guilt in your head! Repeat CHORUS BRIDGE: Sirens in the night; a knock at the door; ; there's his girl and she's alright; she's alright; she's alright! Repeat CHORUS Coda: He's a Li…..ar, he’s a li……ar…
