NASHVILLE, Tenn. (April 5, 2018) —Unwavering and determined, Amerimonte Records recording artist Shane Owens is geared up for his single “LIE,” which released digitally last week and impacts radio on April 30th.
Billboard hosted an exclusive
debut of the behind the scenes video for the tongue in cheek song and an
exclusive sneak peek by Nashville Noise of
the tune. “LIE” is available to download and on all streaming digital platforms.
“Lie is one of my favorite songs on the new album because it is simply one of
those songs everyone can relate to. Not only is it humorous, but people really
enjoy it,” said Shane Owens. “It really is an awful way to get a girl, but
sometimes you have to tell a little lie to get her attention.”
Billboard Magazine wrote: “Fans of traditional country music have long been awaiting the arrival of an artist who just might bring back those sounds to the airwaves. If he has his way, Alabama newcomer Shane Owens will be leading that charge.”
Shane’s humorous, tongue-in-cheek aspect takes on the role of a “wingman” for a pal in the new single. It kicks off with a screamin’ guitar lick and pounding drums. A definite driver of a track with tons of groove and high energy, it sets the stage for a “night on the town” feel – and descends into a Saturday Night Live-worthy romp from there. Two guys, a pretty gal and a world of tone-deaf advice equal a blast of a record that pokes humor at the foolishness of men.

LIE Lyrics
(Writers: Brian Callihan/Trent Willmon/Wayne Underwood)
Sweetest guy in the world
Always had a hard time
Gettin the girl
So I sat him down one night
And told him what to do
This is what you do man
Step one
You gotta get out of town
Two
Hit up the best bar around
Three, find the prettiest girl you can find
And look her right in the eye
And LIE
LIE like hell
Say you’re feeling something that you ain’t never felt
Inside
And you ain’t never done this
There’s just something about her
That you can’t resist
And if she asks you is this just for one night
LIE
Tell her she reminds you of momma
You don’t play games
And you ain’t got time for drama
You’re just out here looking for
Something real
And then she rolls her eyes
And says whatever
Have a backup plan
Something bigger and better
Like you’ve really got a lot of love to give
But you only got two days to live
And LIE
LIE like hell
Say you’re feeling something that you ain’t never felt
Inside And you ain’t never done this
There’s just something about her
That you can’t resist
An d if she asks if you’re the cuddling kind
Hell, LIE
Tell her you and Kenny Chesney
Are best buddies
And you’re daddy’s the one
Who invented the snuggie
Whatever it takes
Take it from me
Tell her anything you think she’ll believe
And LIE
LIE like hell
Say you’re feeling something that you ain’t never felt
Inside And you ain’t never done this
There’s just something about her
That you can’t resist
And if she asks you is this just for one night
LIE
Just LIE
Man it’s bound to work sometime
