BLACK AND WHITE LIES
(Wally Fowler / Jimmy Fowler)


Ray Price - 1970





Black and white lies from left to right
Are in the letter I write tonight
I stopped being lonely when you left
And I'm now at the top among the best
I have money, throw big parties and have a lots of friends
I never lose, I just win

I'm sending back the picture that you sent me
Of our two lovely children
Tell them both to forget me
And I don't wish to see them again

Black and white lies from left to right
Are in the letter I write tonight
What else is new except that you are married again
I hope you'll be happy with him
I'm sending you my best wishes
Consider me your best friend

Black and white lies from left to right
Are in the letter I write tonight
And I'm hoping she'll believe what I write tonight
When she reads this letter of lies in black and white
