Redding, Otis - Tell The Truth Lyrics
Tell the truth
Tell the truth, girl, now
You know you got me goin' everything crazy that you want me to do
Yes you have girl
Don't you, don't you, don't you know you gotta tell the truth, yeah huh
You know you got me goin' everything crazy that you want me to do
Yes you have, yeah watch it
lovin' you is just a little bit easy started, so hard to stop
Feel how could
Baby, bay, you know I would
I feel a strong all around
If I thought that it would do any good, mama
Tell me the truth, yeah
Lit-lit-lit-lit-little girl just
You know you got me goin' everything foolish that you want me to do
Oh play it
Come on Steve, yeah
Tell me,tell me, tell me the truth now
Tell the truth now
Lovin' you is easy to start, hard to stop
But I'm gonna just tell you this, uh
If I had to do it
Baby you know I would
I would feeling strong all around
If I just thought that it would do me some good, aahhhh
The truth now
Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em, tell, just tell me the truth now
Just tell me the truth now
Got to tell me no lie
I wanna tell you the truth now
Don't you, don't you tell me no lie, ah
Just tell me the truth now
Don't you, don't you tell me no lie girl, huh
Just tell me the truth now...

X1.25 speed
Like most everyone, I heard it on the Vietnam documentary and had to hear it again. Loved it back in the mid-sixties, doing the shing-a- ling and boog-a-loo.
So what was the ending songs from the episodes in the Ken Burns series? I counted a few, not in order:1. Otis Reading - Tell the Truth2. The Byrds - Turn Turn Turn3. Neil Young - Ohio4. Simon and Garfunkel - Sound of Silence5. ...6. ...Great music man!
Here, take my upvote you blessed man
Yes Sir....What an Awesome Hour for the Music World!
Just sat the documentary and this tune caught my attention. Thanks to Ken Burns. Nice job on the Vietnam War and on the song selection. Has the war been that long ago, amazing.
The "Vietnam War series introduced me to this song and since then I am addicted to it. A great piece of music.
POOOWWWWWW FIRAHHHH!!! SMOKINNNNN'''
Oh yes! No one else quite so soulfully bluesy, for me. And yes to Ken Burns Vietnam soundtrack (still watching it one ep at a time) -- been totally tripping on the music. I also had to come here to listen again to this song, and many others from the series. That was exactly my era, 21 in 1968.
Otis rocked like nobody else.
First time hearing it,memories of Vietnam era
Love Ken Burns documentaries...and the tunes are always the icing on his cake
@pbs played this song on closing credits on "the Vietnam war" series , had to come here for a replay
@Eugene Cattouse +1
