That`s The Truth — текст песни (Johnny Cash)

Saw a girl in Tampa I asked her for a date
She said baby I`m a sailor this thing better waits
I said I don`t believe you would you show me some proof
She showed me her tattoo then I knew that that`s the truth
Met a woman on a highway by the exit sign
You`d bet your last dollar that she was forty-nine
But she swored to me that she was still in her youth
When I turned down the lights I knew that that`s the truth
Had a girl on a border I guess she was shy never spoke a word in years not even hi
But one night she said honey we`re gonna raise the roof
She put on some dancin` shoes then I knew that that`s the truth
I knew a preacher`s daughter in fact I knew her well
He said son you better ramble unless you`ve got somethin` to sell
It`s an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
He pulled out a fourty-four now I know that that`s the truth that`s the truth
