Truth no.2 Off the Home Album/Dixie Chicks
words and music by Patty Griffin
You don't like the sound of the truth
Coming from my mouth
You say that I lack the proof
Well baby that might be so
I might get to the end of my life
Find out everyone was lying
I don't think I'm afraid anymore say that I would rather die trying
Chorus:Woh-oh,Swing me way down south
Sing me something brave from your mouth
And I'll bring you
Pearls of water on my hips
And the love in my lips
All the love from my lips
This time when he swung a bat
And I found myself laying flat I wondered
What a way to spend a dime
What a way to use the time,ain't it baby
I looked at my reflection in the window
And I saw a stranger
Just so scared all the time it makes me one more reason
Why's the world so dangerous
Chorus:Woh-oh,Swing me way down south
Sing me something brave from your mouth
And I'll bring you
Pearls of water on my hips
And the love in my lips
All the love from my lips
You don't like the sound of the truth
Coming from my mouth
You say that I lack the proof
Well babythat might be so
Tell me what's wrong with having a little faith
In what you're feeling in your heart
Why must we be so afraid
And always so far apart
Chorus:Woh-oh,Swing me way down south
Sing me something brave from your mouth
And I'll bring you
Pearls of water on my hips
And the love in my lips
All the love from my lips
