Tell It Like It Is Lyrics


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 boyIf you are serious
Don't play with my heart
It makes me furious
But if you want me to love you
Then a baby I will, girl you know that I will
Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide
Tell it like it is
I believe you love me, forget your foolish prideLife 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
I'm just tellin' you like it is
I'm nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a baby boy

I'm just tellin' you like it is
'Cause I'm too good to you for that

Otis Ray Redding, Jr. (September 9, 1941 – December 10, 1967 in Dawson, Georgia) was an American soul singer. He is renowned for an ability to convey strong emotion through his voice. According to the website of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (where he was inducted in 1989), Redding's name is "synonymous with the term soul, music that arose out of the black experience in America through the transmutation of gospel and rhythm and blues into a form of funky, secular testifying.
He died on December 10, 1967 in a plane crash.
