Ain't It the Truth |
| Life is short short brother |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| And there is no other |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| You got to rock that rainbow |
| While you still got your youth |
| Ain’t it the solid truth? |
| Was a guy named Adam |
| Ain’t it the solid truth? |
| Said «Now look here madam» |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| «You got to bite that apple |
| While you still got your tooth» |
| Ain’t it the mellow truth? |
| Lord gave us wine and gin |
| To drown our troubles in |
| What’s all this talk of sin? |
| Rise and shine |
| And fall in line |
| Get that new religion |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| 'Fore you is dead pigeon |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| 'Cause when you laid horizontal |
| In that telephone booth |
| There’ll be no breathin' spell |
| It’s only natural |
| Ain’t it the gospel truth? |
| Life is short short brother |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| And there is no other |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| So if you don’t love livin' |
| Then you’re slightly uncouth |
| Ain’t it the dignified truth? |
| Said that gal DuBarry |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| «Love is cash and carry |
| Ain’t it de truth?» |
| «You got to shake it down |
| Or mix it up with vermouth» |
| Ain’t it the visible, visible truth? |
| Life is a ripplin' brook |
| Man is a fish to cook |
| You got to bait your hook |
| Rise and shine |
| And cast your line |
| You got to get your possum |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| While you still in blossom |
| Ain’t it de truth? |
| That went for Delilah |
| Cleopatra and Ruth |
| Them babes did mighty swell |
| They rang that Jezebel |
| Ain’t it the gospel truth? |
| It’s the truth |
| The truth |
| It’s the solid |
| Mellow truth |
