Smoke a cigarette
|
An' I know I've had enough
|
Mash whiskey in another paper cup
|
Didn't know it, babe
|
But yo cup was runnin' over
|
Never time to do it right
|
But it's time to do it over
|
And I lay awake
|
Big dreamers never sleep (No they don't)
|
Time to play the cards
|
Read 'em and weep
|
Well I, I always heard it said
|
That the truth will set you free
|
Woman with the way you do
|
Well how can I believe?
|
A smokin' mountain got to blow
|
I'm the livin' proof
|
|
Well, right now I think it's time
|
To Tell the Truth, baby
|
(Time to tell the truth)
|
Yeah, you got to try
|
Stop lying baby
|
(Time to tell the truth)
|
|
Doin' time behind these bedroom walls
|
Blink of an eye another shooting star falls, yeah
|
Tried to tell you babe
|
But you don't want to hear me
|
Take one good look
|
These are tears of fury
|
Well, then let it show
|
A big catastrophe, yeah yeah
|
Now I don't wanna know
|
Your social activities
|
If the world loves a bad guy
|
Well, then, how 'bout the doubt
|
I was first one to get in
|
Now I'm the last one out
|
Profess to love me, babe
|
Then, why can't I tell?
|
All you do is use me babe
|
You're lying to yourself
|
|
I think it's time...
|
(Time to tell the truth)
|
Time to tell the truth now now
|
Stop lying baby
|
(Time to tell the truth)
|
Time to tell the truth now, all right
|
|
Mama please
|
Baby please
|
If the world loves a bad guy
|
Well, then, how 'bout the doubt
|
Well, I was first one to get in
|
Now I'm the last one out
|
Smokin' mountain got to blow
|
I'm the livin' proof
|
|
And now I know it's time
|
Yes it is
|
Try
|
Yeah, got to try, try
|
(Time to tell the truth)
|
Yeah, tell the truth now
|
(Time to tell the truth)
|
Stop lying baby
|
