Tell The Truth...that's the blues right there nah nah yezz yezz...I ain't lyin'...
Smoke a cigarette
An' I know I've had enough
Mash whiskey in another paper cup
Didn't know it, babe
But yo cup was runnin' over
Never time to do it right
But it's time to do it over
And I lay awake
Big dreamers never sleep (No they don't)
Time to play the cards
Read 'em and 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 the 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, yeah
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, yeah yeah
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
Now 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)
Time to tell the truth now now
Stop lying baby
(Time to tell the truth)
Time to tell the truth now, all right
Mama please
Baby please
If the world 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 the livin' proof
And now I know it's time
Yes it is
Try
Yeah, got to try, try
(Time to tell the truth)
Yeah, tell the truth now
(Time to tell the truth)
Stop lying baby

"I used to play the blues alone in all the local joints," he explained. 'The only thing that I can really play on guitar to this day is the blues. I heard Doc Watson and his son playing 15 years ago, and from there I got into Leadbelly and John Lee Hooker."--DLR
If I had one biscuit, and sam hagar hadn't eaten nothin' in a month, I'd break it in two and eat both pieces.--Loons, celebrating Van Halen with David Lee Roth ONLY !!!

One of DLR's finest tunes, EVER. VH and solo.
In and out. I didn't even make that pun on purpose.

He performed it live on Letterman and it sounded really good.
If I don't respond to you it means I have you on ignore, which means you are a douchenozzle.

David Lee Roth did the impossible. He made Van Halen better. Deal with it!

Well, I must say that I've always loved that tune, and most of DLR's solo stuff. Still a real fan since '78 or '79 because the music was so damn good...

"Tell The Truth" is definately one of Dave's finest solo tunes...
“And what we have at our fingertips is arguably one of the greatest high tenor voices ever – that was in Michael Anthony. In our tiny little corner of the universe, that voice is as identifiable as the high voice in Earth, Wind & Fire, as identifiable as the high voice in the Beach Boys. Van Halen is an indelicate house blend of both – that’s intentionally. So I would always look forward to that reunion.” - David Lee Roth
