Camille Jones - The Truth

Tell em all I`m on vacation
Say I went to visit friends
That you ain`t heard or seen from me in quite a while
When they ask you where I`ve been
Tell em I`m out on the west coast where it don`t ever rain
And that I`m probably doing fine
Just don`t tell em I`ve gone crazy
That I`m still strung out over you
Tell em anything you want to
Just don`t tell em all the truth
Yeah don`t tell em all the truth
Tell em all I`m out in Vegas
Blowin` every dollar I ever made
Tell em that I must be into something bad for me cause
I sure lost a lot of weight
Tell em I`m out on the road
with some old rock and roll band
Living like a gypsy can
The truth is that I`m asking you to lie
And we both know that it ain`t right
But if you ever loved me please
Have some mercy on me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Tell em anything you want to
Just don`t tell em all the truth
Yeah don`t tell em all the truth
I still need you
Yeah that`s the truth
I still love you
Baby that`s the truth
