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

You `oughta, you `oughta
(tell the truth)

Stop Lying, whooh

Whoooh
(tell the truth)
Whoooh
(tell the truth)
Oh baby

Now tell the truth

(tell the truth)
What about that man you were with last night

I want to know
(tell the truth)
Come on baby

Hey hey

Every day of your life, you `oughta
