lyrics

I’ve got a friend who’s down to ride
Ain’t no fool, ain’t full of pride
Helps me to choose make up my mind
Won’t play it loose and ain’t hard to find

Good old truth, I like your style
Keep’em honest all of the while
Good old truth, a friend to all
I’m gonna pick up whenever you call

[Kelli Welli:]
Ain’t complicated, though some may try
To spin the truth out of a lie
Here always waiting right by my
When I’m confused, truth will shine a light (shine a light!)

Good old truth, I like your style
You keep’em honest all of the while
Good old truth, a friend to all
I’m gonna pick up next time you call

[Mo Phillips:]
Well, truth, truth, truth, like a wiggly tooth
It’s on the tip of your tongue, just got to bust it loose
It’s got your back, gonna keep you on track
Perhaps you know its other name, well some call it facts

Good old truth, I like your style
Keep’em honest all of the while
Good old truth, a friend to all
Always pick up whenever you call

[SaulPaul:]
Brrring! Hello, who dis? Truth?
For reals, it’s truly true?
Question, don’t cows moo?
You got me, yeah they do
Achoo! Gesunheit, bless
Tell the truth and stress less
You can pass any stress test
All facts, you don’t have to guess

Good old truth, I like your style
Keep’em honest all of the while
Good old truth, a friend to all
I’m gonna pick up next you call
Always pick up whenever you call
