Lyrics
IT'S THE TRUTH
*(It's the truth, nothin', nothin' but the truth)x3,
It's the truth, nothin', nothin' but!
Since I was a little boy,
I have been a naked soul,
Blew my chances 'cause I spoke my mind,
Now I'm standing Five foot Six,
Lookin' at three decades past,
I have learned some lessons here and there,
Repeat*
Back In my adolescence,
I thought I was someone else,
Never knew if I were brown or white,
I have travelled many lands,
Seeing things through many eyes,
Still I shiver when the rent time comes,
Repeat* and Solo
**(It's the truth, the whole truth, nothin' but the truth)X4
Repeat*
Repeat**
Repeat*
Fade to End.
