The Cold Hard Truth Lyrics

The Cold Hard Truth lyrics

You don't know who I am,

But I know all about you.

I've come to talk to you tonight,

About the things I've seen you do.

I've come to set the record straight;

I've come to shine the light on you.

Let me introduce myself:

I am the cold hard truth.



There is a woman we both know,

I think you know the one I mean.

She gave her heart and soul to you,

You gave her only broken dreams.

You say you're not the one to blame,

For all the heartache she's been through.

I say you're nothin' but a liar:

I am the cold hard truth.



All of your life, that's how it's been;

Lookin' out for number one.

Takin' more than you give;

Movin' on when you're done.

With her you could've had it all:

Family and love to last.

If you had any sense at all,

You'd go and beg her to come back.



You think that you're a real man,

But you are nothin' but a fool.

The way you run away from love;

The way you try to play it cool.

I'm gonna say this just one time,

Time is running out on you.

You best remember me my friend:

I am the cold hard truth.



You best remember me my friend:

I am the cold hard truth.
