The Cold Hard Truth - George Jones

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’m 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 your not the one to blame

For all the heartaches she’s been though

I say you’re nothing but a liar

And I’m the cold hard truth

All 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 have had it all

A family and love to last

If you had any sense at all

You’d go and beg her to come back

Instrumental

You think that you’re a real man

But you’re nothing 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…
