"You Lie" is a song written by Bobby Fischer, Charlie Black and Austin Roberts, and recorded by American country music artist Reba McEntire. It was released in August 1990 as the first single from the album Rumor Has It. "You Lie" was Reba McEntire's fourteenth number one country hit. The single went to number one for one week and spent a total of 20 weeks on the country chart.

Before McEntire's version was released, Cee Cee Chapman cut it on her 1988 album Twist of Fate.

The narrator knows her husband no longer loves her, and is agonizing over whether to play along to keep him close (knowing he is only staying out of obligation), or to do the right thing and let him go. At the end of the video, the narrator (played by Reba) symbolically releases a wild horse.
