Tell It Like It Is - Otis Redding, Carla Thomas

If you want something to play with

Go and find yourself a toy

Baby my time is too expensive

And I’m not a little boy

If you are serious

Don’t play with my heart it makes me furious

But if want me to love you

Then baby I will girl you know I will

Tell it like it is Don’t be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide

But I I I I I know deep down inside of me

I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride

Life is too short to have sorrow

You may be here today and gone tomorrow

You might as well get what you want

So go on and live, baby, go on and live

Tell it like it is

I’m nothin' to play with, go and find yourself a toy

But I-I-I-I-I

Tell it like it is My time is too expensive

And I’m not your little boy

FADE

Mm mm, tell it like it is
