"Truth No. 2" by Dixie Chicks (Patty Griffin)

1st Verse

You don't like the sound of the truth
Comin' 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 lyin'
I don't think that I'm afraid anymore
Say that I would rather die tryin'

Chorus

Whoa-oh
Swing me way down South
Sing me somethin' 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

2nd Verse

This time when he swung the bat
And I found myself layin' 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 walkin' past
And I saw a stranger
Just so scared all the time
It makes me one more reason
Why the world's dangerous

(Repeat Chorus)

3rd Verse

You don't like the sound of the truth
Comin' from my mouth
You say that I lack the proof
Well, baby, that might be so
Tell me what's wrong
With havin' a little faith
In what you're feelin' in your heart
Why must we be so afraid
And always so far apart

(Repeat Chorus)
