Lesson Number One Songtext

[M. Crenshaw]

It's been no fun learning lesson number one
Nobody can share my troubles, this I know
And let me tell you I learned a lesson, here I go
Don't you know [oh no] it's just as sure as the rising sun
Don't you know [oh no] to tell the truth is lesson number one
I look around the room and know the hotel in one glance
And it seems that I've arrived at a battleground just by chance
Clothes thrown everywhere mirrors broken and damage done
And I'm all alone thinkin' back on lesson number one
I remember being told to be careful
That telling even one lie
Would surely lead to more problems
Of alarming dimensions
I wish I had paid attention
Clothes thrown everywhere mirrors broken and damage done
And I'm all alone thinkin' back on lesson number one
To lie to your lover is a sorry losing game
To lie is a violation and a shame
Don't you know [oh no] it's just as sure as the rising sun
Don't you know [oh no] to tell the truth is lesson number one
Don't you know [oh no] it's just as sure as the rising sun
Don't you know [oh no] to tell the truth that's lesson number one
Don't you know [oh no] it's just as sure as the rising sun
Don't you know [oh no] to tell the truth is lesson number one
