Content

The narrator addresses several lies that women tend to tell regarding their expectations of their significant others. For example, it doesn't matter how much money they make, what car they drive, or how much they weigh; and it's interesting to listen to them brag about golf, hunting, and getting wings at Hooters.

Critical reception

Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, saying that "a clever lyric combined with a spirited performance make this highly compatible with previous Clark hits." and "boasts a lively tempo that makes it great summer radio fare, and the lyric will make listeners chuckle."

Music video

The music video shows a woman, played by LaTresa Smith with Pirates of the Caribbean character Jack Sparrow as her dream lover, played by video director Shaun Silva. At the end, she calls him "Johnny" in bed. The video also features a cameo appearance by Wayne Newton.

The video for "Girls Lie Too" was released to CMT and Great American Country on June 13, 2004.
