Lucinda Williams - Everything But The Truth lyrics

You got the power to make this mean old world a better place You got the power to make this mean old world a better place People say they hate you, try to k** you, while they're grinning in your face But you got the power to make this mean old world a better place Before you can have a friend, you gotta be one Before you can have a friend, you gotta be one You gotta do the right thing, you gotta jump on in You gotta see that it gets done Before you can have a friend, you gotta be one Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth He's not playing games and he's taking names and he is bulletproof Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth, yeah God put the firewood there, but you gotta light yourself God put the firewood there, but you gotta light yourself But you gotta go it alone, you gotta gather it up Ain't nobody gonna help God put the firewood there, but you gotta light yourself You gotta make the most of what equipment you've got You gotta make the most of what equipment you've got Don't sit around complaining and cryin' all the time 'Cause you don't have a lot You gotta make the most of what equipment you've got Sooner or later before too long, you gotta make a payment Sooner or later before too long, you gotta make a payment You gotta settle up with this sweet old world And give back what you've taken Sooner or later before too long, you gotta make a payment Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth He's not playing games, he's taking names and he is bulletproof Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth Everything's gonna change, everything but the truth
