Ain't That the Truth

Takin' it easy with a friend of mine

Down at the diamond talkin' 'bout them shifty ways of time

He said to me, "You can't get free, unless you make your move"

And I said, "Ain't that the truth"

So I cut a million skylines, scars and borderlines

Just tryin' to find the sun

Then it was somewhere around Sante Fe

When some late night preacher told me, "Son"

"Listen to me, the devil can’t get you 'cause he ain’t got proof"

And I said, "Ain't that the truth"

So take me down that open road

Light up my fire high

Well, sing me that song from yesteryear

When we were all right

Cuttin' this deep into history

Shoulder to shoulder we'll stand over the grave

Watchin' the hatchet lowerin' on down

I say "Man, years ago we shoulda called this truce"

And you said, "Ain't that the truth"

So take me down that open road

Light up my fire high

Sing me that song from yesteryear

When we were all right

Take me down that open road

(Take me down)

Sing me that song from yesteryear

When we were all right

Cuttin' this deep into history

Ain't that the truth

Ain't that the truth

Ain't that the truth

Ain't that the truth...
