I've Been Deceived

Charlie Feathers


I've been deceived
There's no use denieing
I was fooled by kisses
Your sweet talk and your lying
But the good book tells us
You reap just what you sow
In your harvest darlin'
Will be bitter tears, I know
Oh, I've been deceived

Words can not explain, dear
What you've done to me
The sorrow you brought me
And, Oh, the misery
Why must the honest suffer?
And the guilty go free?
I'm left along to ponder
Perhaps, someday I'll see
Oh, I've been deceived
