Short lyrics
Sheriff: As sure as a prickly pear has a sticker

As sure as a pony has a clippitty-clop

When you tell a little lie it'll just get bigger

When you start lying you just can't stop

Sheriff (spoken): Take it, girls. I can't sing 'em all.

Girls: You can jiggle and wriggle, but you just can't wiggle

But you can't wiggle out of a lie

It'll tangle you up like a cowboy's lasso

Like a rope that you can't untie

Now there's a good reason God gave us a tongue

Sheriff and Girls: And a reason for every tooth

Girls: It's so we can eat our food and so that

We can talk and tell the truth

Sheriff (spoken): Let the boss at ya.

Sheriff and Girls: As sure as a prickly pear has a sticker

As sure as a pony has a clippitty-clop

When you tell a little lie it'll just get bigger

When you start lying you just can't stop

Sheriff (spoken): But you better stop or I'll put you in jail.

When you start lying you just can't stop

Sheriff (spoken): Okay, ladies. Nice and sweet, now.

Girls: God wants us only to speak what's true

And never a lie to say

Sheriff (spoken): Appreciate, girls.

Girls: So neither want to stop easy to do

Be honest in every way

So before you say what it is you're saying

Better think and thin then it's true

Sheriff (spoken): Think about it.

Girls: Remember buckaroos that God is listening

And stick to the truth like glue

Sheriff (spoken): Big finish.

Sheriff and Girls: As sure as a prickly pear has a sticker

As sure as a pony has a clippitty-clop

When you tell a little lie it'll just get bigger

When you start lying you just can't stop

Sheriff (spoken): But you better stop or I'll put you in jail.
