[Intro]

Yeah, um...

See, it's situations like this

That cause us playas to get caught up (Truth hurts)

In, um, the truth, yeah, yeah (Truth hurts)

What you been doing, where you been?

I paged you and you ain't hit me back (Truth hurts)

And I've been calling and I know you see my number on that caller I.D (truth hurts)

Just listen to the words


[Verse 1]

(I got reason to believe that you've been fooling around)

The way you feel, the past you lived

The things you did

It don't matter to me

For what it's worth, just don't lie to me

'Cause that ain't what I need right now

Baby, everything we built on trust

You're tearing it down

'Cause I know the truth hurts (Truth hurts)


[Chorus]

Tell me the truth now

What you been doing and who you been doing it with (Truth hurts)

Where you been going and how you been putting your thing down (Truth hurts)

Whatever you was working, I hope that it was worth it, baby (Truth hurts)

I got reason to believe that you been fooling around


[Verse 2]

Girl, I'm really trying hard to understand

I want to move on and put it in the past

'Cause you claim that you ain’t doing nothing

Must be my insecurities

It’s got the best of me right now, uh

What I know, I can't hold inside of me

It's gon' drive me insane

That's how I know the truth hurts, yeah


[Chorus]

Tell me the truth now

What you been doing and who you been doing it with (Truth hurts)

Where you been going and how you been putting your thing down (truth hurts)

Whatever you was working, I hope that it was worth it, baby (Truth hurts)

I got reason to believe that you been fooling around


[Bridge]

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah (Sing it with me now)

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah (Oh yeah)

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah (I can't hold on)

Truth hurts


[Verse 3]

Now wait a minute

Oh, listen babe (Truth hurts)

The truth is, I've got the secret

I've been keeping from you, baby

'Cause I know that you gonna tear up the place

Punch me in my face

Pull the hot grits out, I think you need to sit down, oh

I've been blaming you when I'm the one that's doing wrong

I'm gonna go on

My guilty conscience is the real reason I wrote this song

Girl, I know the truth hurts, baby


[Chorus]

Tell me the truth now

What you been doing and who you been doing it with (Truth hurts)

Where you been going and how you been putting your thing down (Truth hurts)

Whatever you was working, I hope that it was worth it, baby (Truth hurts)

I got reason to believe that you been fooling around

Tell me the truth now

What you been doing and who you been doing it with (Truth hurts)

Where you been going and how you been putting your thing down (Truth hurts)

Whatever you was working, I hope that it was worth it, baby (Truth hurts)

I got reason to believe that you been fooling around


[Outro]

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah (Sing it)

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah

Bah, bah, bah, bah
