Verse 1

Ive been smoking a lot of cigarettes

Ive been shuffling my feet

Making payments on some long past dues

This slice of life aint cheap

Verse 2

Ive been doing a little drinking

It dont tickle my bone

Whats a man to do with these old walking shoes

If they never get you home

Never get you home

Chorus 1

Somebody tell the truth......whats a man to do

Somebody tell the truth......whats a man to do

When the one you love......dont love you

Somebody tell the truth......whats a man to do

Verse 3

Picking up rocks in this old river bed

Im just trying to forget

Some days you take from it what you want

Some days you take what you get

Verse 4

I have seen the whites of your knuckles

And Ive seen the blood in your spit

You can give up, you can give in

But you can never quit

Oh you can never quit

Chorus 2

Somebody tell the truth......whats a man to do

Somebody tell the truth......whats a man to do

Somebody tell the truth......wont somebody tell the truth

When the one you love......dont love you

Somebody......tell the truth......Tell the truth

Somebody tell the truth

Somebody tell the truth

Somebody tell the truth

Somebody tell the truth

Somebody tell the truth
