Smoke a cigarette

An' I know I've had enough

Mash whiskey in another paper cup

Didn't know it, babe

But your cup was runnin' over

Never time to do it right

But it's time to do it over

An' I lay awake

Big dreamers never sleep, no they don't

Time to play the cards, read 'em an' weep

Well I, I always heard it said

That the truth will set you free

Woman, with the way you do

Well, how can I believe?

A smokin' mountain got to blow

I'm a livin' proof

Well, right now I think it's time

To tell the truth, baby

Time to tell the truth

Yeah, you got to try

Stop lying, baby

Time to tell the truth

Doin' time behind these bedroom walls

Blink of an eye, another shooting star falls

Tried to tell you, babe

But you don't want to hear me

Take one good look, these are tears of fury

Well, then let it show, a big catastrophe

Now I don't wanna know your social activities

If the world loves a bad guy

Well, then, how 'bout the doubt?

I was first one to get in, baby

I'm the last one out

Profess to love me, babe

Then, why can't I tell?

All you do is use me, babe

You're lying to yourself

I think it's time

Time to tell the truth

Stop lying, baby

Time to tell the truth

Mama, please

Baby, please

If the world really loves a bad guy

Well, then, how 'bout the doubt?

Well, I was first one to get in

Now I'm the last one out

Smokin' mountain got to blow

I'm livin' proof

And now I know it's time

Yes, it is

Try

Time to tell the truth

Yeah, tell the truth now

Time to tell the truth

Stop lying, baby

Time to tell the truth

Tell the truth now

Time to tell the truth

Tell the truth now, baby

Time to tell the truth
