Lyrics The Ugly Truth - Ricky Warwick

The Ugly Truth

I’ve got a friend spent some time in jail
Told me he wishes he was back in his old cell
It’s cold outside the darkness never flows
And he can’t hide from the ugly truth
I know a girl who’s got an ivory heart
She loves in vain and it’s leaving needle marks
Says it getting hurt changes everything
And she can’t hide from the ugly truth
Hallelujah
We shall understand some sunny day
Hallelujah
Till then we’ll keep our troubles locked away
Try to hide from the ugly truth
But we can’t hide from the ugly truth
I saw the devil talkin' on TV men of the people
It what he claims to be
Surely hell is coming
Jesus please save us cause we can’t hide
From the ugly truth
Hallelujah
We shall understand some sunny day
Hallelujah
Till then we’ll keep our troubles locked away
Try to hide from the ugly truth
But we can’t hide from the ugly truth
I met a man he’s got a secret soul
He kept his diamonds in a mind
As black as coal found him true love
And got his dreams paroled
Now I can’t hide from the ugly truth
Hallelujah
We shall understand some sunny day
Hallelujah
Till then we’ll keep our troubles locked away
And try to hide from the ugly truth
But we can’t hide from the ugly truth
