Ain’t That the Truth

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah! Now, pardon my personal demons, child, but if you do insist Sit down and listen to my story awhile 'cause it go somethin' like this [Verse 1] Joint was small, we was having a ball at a place called the Blue Duck Inn When I couldn't help but notice her, my future wife walked in I needed me a dose of her, I got a little closer, and this is what she said "My old man stands about six-foot-five, and if he catches you, you're dead" [Pre-Chorus] I don't need none of that, giving me the blues I tell the old man sitting next to me, said, "Son, let me tell you" [Chorus] "Life, you just can't fake it Love, you gotta make it Time, you better take it" Lord, ain't that the truth? Hear me out "Heart will surely feel it Women come and steal it Time can only heal it" Lord, ain't that the truth? Yeah, ha! [Verse 2] I save Friday night for the ladies, Saturday night for my gin Come Sunday morning, I'm asking the good Lord, "Forgive me for my sins" But my heave-ho-get-up-and-go wouldn't get me out of bed I feel like some big wrecking ball done hit upside my head [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a preacher man telling me how to run my life Until an angel sitting next to me said, "Son, heed my advice," she said [Chorus] "Life, you just can't fake it Love, you gotta make it Time, you better take it" Lord, ain't that the truth? Hear me out "Heart will surely feel it Women come and steal it Time can only heal it" Lord, ain't that the truth? Yeah, ha! [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] You better get your story down What comes around goes around Let's seal it! [Chorus] Life, you just can't fake it Love, you gotta make it Time, you better take it Lord, ain't that the truth? Hear me out Heart will surely feel it Women come and steal it Time can only heal it Lord, ain't that the truth? Yeah, ha!
