Ain't It De Truth Lyrics
Ain't It De Truth - Lena Horne
Life is short short brother
Ain't it de truth
And there is no other
Ain't it de truth
If you don't love livin'
Then you're slightly uncouth
Ain't it the dignified truth
Said that gal DuBarry
Ain't it de truth
Love is cash and carry
Ain't it de truth
You got to shake it down
Or mix it up with vermouth
Ain't it the visible visible truth
Life is a ripplin' brook
Man is a fish to cook
You got to bait your hook
Rise and shine
And cast your line
You got to get your possum
Ain't it de truth
While you still in blossom
Ain't it de truth
That went for Delilah
Cleopatra and Ruth
Had we over room
Them babes did mighty swell
They rang that Jezebel
Ain't it the gospel truth
It's the truth
The truth
It's the solid
Mellow truth
