A country song about that one person in everyone's life who raked us over the coals and then dropped us like a hot rock.
Story behind the song
I wanted to write an uptempo "somebody done somebody wrong" song.
Lyrics
You Led Me On ©2015 Steve Bryant
(Verse)
You led me on,
Since the day we met.
You led me on,
Thought I was your pet.
You led me on,
Put me deep in debt,
You led me on.
You led me on,
Told me you would stay.
You led me on,
Didn’t see your feet of clay.
You led me on,
Then led me astray.
You led me on.
(Chorus)
I couldn’t see,
Blinded by desire.
I got burned,
From such a live wire.
I was hooked,
You were the supplier.
Liar, liar,
Pants on fire.
(Verse)
You led me on,
Never met your friends,
You led me on,
Now I need a real good cleanse.
You led me on,
You’ll never make amends.
You led me on.
You led me on,
I bought all your new clothes.
You led me on,
Even paid to fix your nose.
You led me on,
Got me to propose.
You led me on.
(Chorus)
I couldn’t see,
Blinded by desire.
I got burned,
From such a live wire.
I was hooked,
You were the supplier.
Liar, liar,
Pants on fire.
(Verse)
(Instrumental solo for the first half)
You led me on,
Guess I wasn’t thinkin’.
You led me on,
How much was I drinkin’?
You led me on,
Then set me free like Mr. Lincoln,
Led me on.
(FADE OUT ENDING)
You led me on.
You led me on.
You led me on…
