Tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well, you know what you done to me,
You made me fall for you
Tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well you know you can make me do what you want me to
Loving you, feelings started
But, i'm goin' to stop it
If i could, i surely would
I would roll up around you
If i thought it would do any good
Why don't you tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well you know you can make me do what you want me to
(bridge)
Loving you, feelings started
But, i'm goin' to stop it
If i could, i surely would
I would roll up around you
If i thought it would do any good
Why don't you tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well you know you can make me do what you want me to
Whooah, come on, tell the truth, now
(tell the truth)
And i know, i know, baby
(tell the truth)
Every day, every night
(tell the truth)
Whooah, hold me tight
(tell the truth)
And i know, and i know
(tell the truth)
You `oughta, you `oughta
(tell the truth)
Stop lying

Stop lying, whooh
(tell the truth)
Whoooh
(tell the truth)
Whoooh
(tell the truth)
Oh baby

Now tell the truth
(tell the truth)
Every day of your life, tell the truth little girl
(tell the truth)
What about that man you were with last night
(tell the truth)
I want to know
(tell the truth)
Come on baby
(tell the truth)
Hey hey
(tell the truth)
Every day of your life, you `oughta
