Text
I spent a lot of years
Hiding more than I should
There's lots of people out there
Thinking that I'm no good
And I laughed it off
Every time I heard
Until I found out
Who I hurt
A lie is a lie, and the truth is the truth
You can try doing one, but there ain't no use in
Spinning tall tales, it always fails
When words run out like gas in the tank
So, I'll say what I mean
And mean what I say
You can take that to the bank
If I could do it all again
I'd draw a different line
I wouldn't spin it
I'd give it to you straight every time
With all the strands woven
In this web
I couldn't keep up
With what I said
A lie is a lie, and the truth is the truth
You can try doing one, but there ain't no use in
Spinning tall tales, it always fails
When words run out like gas in the tank
So, I'll say what I mean
And mean what I say
And you can take that to the bank
A lie is a lie, and the truth is the truth
You can try doing one, but there ain't no use in
Spinning tall tales, it always fails
When words run out like gas in the tank
It may be easier said than done
But good things only come
With saying what you mean
And meaning what you say
You can take that to the bank
Yeah, you can take that to the bank
You can take that to the bank
