The first thing she done when they set her free
From the women's correctional facility
Was to come here askin' me for a reconciliation
She said she'd changed her ways for good
And all she was, was misunderstood
So I did everything I could for her rehabilitation

Hook, line and sinker, I swallowed all of her lies
Hook, line and sinker, she took me for a ride
Just one look at that innocent face
I didn't think twice, I just snapped up the bait
Hook, line and sinker

I helped her get on her feet again
I got her a job out at the Dixie Inn
I had to swear up and down to them that the girl could be trusted
Two nights later she cleaned them out
She took my old Firebird and headed South
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net -]
And when the cops came to my house, buddy
Guess who go busted?

Hook, line and sinker, I swallowed all of her lies
Hook, line and sinker, she took me for a ride
Just one look at that innocent face
I didn't think twice, I just snapped up the bait
Hook, line and sinker

When she told me how lonely she had been
I should have seen she was only reelin' me in
Hook, line and sinker

Just one look at that innocent face
I didn't think twice, I just snapped up the bait
Hook, line and sinker

I swallowed all of her lies
Hook, line and sinker

She took me for a ride
Hook, line and sinker
Hook, line and sinker
