Revisiting some older temptracks I did a few years ago. Wonder how this comes across to you? Dont really know what to do with it, I can't think of artists that are doing songs like these anymore.

Track down (thanks)

Ain’t That The Truth

I used to dream of the standard things
Stuff like fancy cars and diamond rings
That was in a different world
Ain’t that the truth
Somewhere life took a strange turn
Got into things where I got burned
Both by some jerks and my own soul
Ain’t that the truth
Now, I’m on the fence for nothing
Cause I’ve let it all slide
Ain’t that the truth

All of those dreams are long gone
I’m on the nickel from now on
Cause jobs are for the wise guys
Ain’t that the truth
And I can’t say that I’m too smart
You’re weighed by credit card, not your heart
In these miserable times
Ain’t that the truth
So, I’m on the fence for nothing
Cause I’ve let it all slide
Ain’t that the truth

Hey, you know the thing about ideals
They won’t exactly help to pay your bills
That’s the wisdom of the road
And you can’t change the world
At least I’m not that big a man

(instrumental break)

But ain’t it funny the freedom comes from giving in
Now I can truly say, I don’t give a damn
It will fall back on me, I know
Ain’t that the truth
Oh, I get how the money games are played
They’ll even pay you to stay home in your bed
If that will get the job done
Ain’t that the truth
But, I’m on the fence for nothing
Cause I’ve let it all slide
Ain’t that the truth
