Ain't That The Truth Lyrics - Poison

Now pardon my personal demons, child 

But if you do insist 

Sit down and listen to me story awhile 

'Cause it goes something like this 

The joint was small but we were having a ball 

At a place called the Blue Duck Inn 

When I couldn't help but notice her 

My future wife walked in 

I needed me a dose of her, so I got a little closer 

And this is what she said 

"My old man stands about six foot five 

And if he catches you, you're dead" 

I don't need none of that 

Givin' me the blues 

Until the old man sitting next to me said 

"Son, let me tell you" 

Life, you just can't fake it 

Love, you gotta make it 

Time, you better take it 

Lord, ain't that the truth 

Hear me out 

Heart will surely feel it 

Women come and steal it 

Time can only heal it 

Lord, ain't that the truth 

I save Friday night for the ladies 

Saturday night for my gin 

Then come Sunday morning 

I'm asking the good Lord 

"Forgive me for my sins" 

For my heave-ho get up and go 

Wouldn't get me out of bed 

I felt like some big wrecking ball 

Done hit upside my head 

I don't need a preacher man 

Telling me how to run my life 

Until an angel sitting next to me 

Said, "Son, heed my advice", she said 

Life, you just can't fake it 

Love, you gotta make it 

Time, you better take it 

Lord, ain't that the truth 

Hear me out 

Heart will surely feel it 

Women come and steal it 

Time can only heal it 

Lord, ain't that the truth 

You better get your story straight 

What comes around, goes around 

They say, life, you just can't fake it 

Love, you gotta make it 

Time, you better take it 

Lord, ain't that the truth 

Hear me out 

Heart will surely feel it 

Women come and steal it 

Time can only heal it 

Lord, ain't that the truth
