words and music by Erin Main and Rick Paul
From the upcoming single The Real Truth (N.O.Y.B.)
Thanks a lot for your concern
‘Bout what they’re sayin’ ’bout me
The rumors sure do get around
Yeah, they’re flowin’ wild and free
Whispers around town, blowin’ in the wind
Have a way of circlin’ back again
But the real truth
Is somewhere ‘tween black and white
Somethin’ you see reflected in me
That’s hidden deep inside
I could tell you the real truth
But you’ll believe what you want to believe
And the real truth
About me is
N.O.Y.B.
The gossip gets to flyin’
In this one-horse, two-faced town
Folks’ll smile when I look their way
Then laugh when I turn around
I can see you’re wonderin’ if it’s true what people say
Pull up a chair, I’ll tell it to you straight
Oh, the real truth
Is somewhere ‘tween black and white
Somethin’ you see reflected in me
That’s hidden deep inside
I could tell you the real truth
But you’ll believe what you want to believe
And the real truth
About me is
N.O.Y.B.
Whispers around town, blowin’ in the wind
Have a way of circlin’ back again
But the real truth
Is somewhere ‘tween black and white
Somethin’ you see reflected in me
That’s hidden deep inside
I could tell you the real truth
But you’ll believe what you want to believe
And the real truth
About me is
N.O.Y.B.
Yeah, the real truth
About me is
N.O.Y.B.
