Just an Old Truth Teller

JIMMY BUFFETT

(3:34)

1st Verse I'm just an old truth teller I'm your candid friend I'm not some daydream seller I do not pretend / I've a sense of survival And screwing my rivals That's labeled me crass and uncouth But I can't help it I just tell the truth He can't help it, he just tells the truth / 2nd Verse I'm just an old truth teller Brutally direct I see it eye for eye I'm rarely incorrect Why call me a sharp trader A corporate raider I'm a role model for today's youth It's so simple, I just tell the truth He can't help it, he just tells the truth / Bridge Why was I born to be right all the time In deal after deal after deal Foiling those sharks that are circling my penthouse Hoping to make me a meal / 3rd Verse No good deed goes unpunished Nothing goes as planned My ingrate family left me I don't understand / Where's your wife? In Alaska Any sons? In Nebraska And my daughter milks cows in Duluth / I can't help it, I just tell the truth / Ohh he can't help it, he just sells it He can't help it, he just tells it / I can't help it, I just tell the truth
