Pam Anders
Bad Ass Bass Gal
Cover Recorded: January 2021
Lyin’ Eyes
Original Artist: The Eagles
Originally Released: 1975
Genre: Country rock
Composer (s): Glenn Frey and Don Henley
Lyricist: Glenn Frey and Don Henley
About this cover: This is a beautiful ballad that involves a beautiful woman who can have any man she wants, but marries for money. She soon learns that money isn’t everything. This is one of my favorite Eagles songs, so I chose it to do a cover.
Song Facts: When The Eagles were a struggling band in Los Angeles, they saw a lot of beautiful women around Hollywood who were married to wealthy, successful men, and wondered if they were unhappy. One night they were drinking in a bar (their favorite watering hole: Dan Tana’s) when they spotted this stunning young woman; two steps behind her was a much older, fat, rich guy. As they were half laughing at them, Glenn Frey commented, “Look at her, she can’t even hide those lyin’ eyes!”
Realizing they had a song title, the band members began grabbing for cocktail napkins to write down lyrics to go with that great observation.

Thanks Mary. Run that idea by Mark LOL
Sweet, so sweet Pam
Great job, nice video production.
Is that a picture of your house in the background?
Reminds me of some nice newer dessert homes in the greater Phoenix area
If not, you picked a great model home to play in front of.
somebody call the cops!!!!!!! Got a party breaking out out front.
LOL thanks. I wish it was my house. It’s just a random house I chose for a backdrop. It seemed appropriate for the lyrics to have an expensive house.
