People talking but it ain`t the truth
Lyin` ain`t no substitute
You ought to be ashamed of yourself
Try to put the blame on somebody else
Ain`t no reason I know
To stop you reaping what you sow
You must know right from wrong
Don`t make out, you don`t know what`s going on.
A man`s gotta do it right
And if we gotta fight all night
That`s alright. I got time.
And fighting liars suits me just fine
A man oughta tell it true
According to his point of view
And whatever you want to be
Don`t lie to me, don`t lie to me
People talking round and round
Whisper rumours try to bring you down
You can`t make shit into gold
And nothing`s over `til the story`s told
People talking all around the world
Eating facts and throwing up words
Turn around so I can see your face
I don`t care if you need your space
A man`s gotta be a man and you can see just what I am
There ain`t no room for mistakes
Everybody knows the moves they ought to make
A man`s gotta tell the truth.
And if it`s good, he don`t need proof
And whoever you think you see
Don`t lie to me, don`t lie to me.
People talkin` but they just don`t know
Ain`t got no pride no more
Want to be on TV so bad
They give away all the honour they had
Ain`t no way I can see that people gonna listen to me
But I know what I know
And I`ll see more than you`ll ever show
A man`s gotta play the game
And save the worth of his name
Cause waiting out there on the edge
Is everything you need to make a fool of yourself
And if you want to know the score
It that`s what you`re waiting for
Don`t look at me, I won`t tell
You better get out and see yourself
Don`t lie to me, don`t lie to me
Don`t lie to me
You know I hate that shit baby
Don`t lie to me, don`t lie to me
Uh-huh honey, can`t you see
Don`t lie to me, don`t lie to me
