Artist: Jason Aldean Album: Wide Open (2009) Title: The Truth
Lyrics The Truth[Verse 1:]
Tell 'em all I'm on vacation.
Say I went to visit friends.
That you ain't heard or seen from me,
In quite a while,
When they ask you where I've been.
Tell 'em I'm out on the west coast,
Where it don't ever rain.
An' that I'm probably doin' fine.
[Chorus:]
Just don't tell 'em I've gone crazy.
That I'm still strung out over you.
Tell 'em anything you want to.
Just don't tell 'em all the truth.
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth.
[Verse 2:]
Tell 'em all I'm out in Vegas,
Blowin' every dollar I ever made.
Tell 'em that I must be,
Into somethin' bad for me,
'Cause I sure lost a lot of weight.
Tell 'em I'm out on the road,
With some old rock an' roll band,
Livin' like a gypsy can.
[Chorus:]
Just don't tell 'em I've gone crazy.
That I'm still strung out over you.
Tell 'em anything you want to.
Just don't tell 'em all the truth.
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth.
[Bridge:]
The truth is that I'm askin' you to lie,
An' we both know that it ain't right.
But if you ever loved me,
Please, have some mercy on me.
Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah.
[Coda:]
Tell 'em anything you want to.
Just don't tell em all the truth.
Yeah, don't tell em all the truth.
I still need you.
Yeah that's the truth.
I still love you.
Baby, that's the truth. |
