Ray Charles

Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 – June 10, 2004) was an American musician known as Ray Charles (to avoid confusion with champion boxer Sugar Ray Robinson.) He was a pioneer in the genre of soul music during the 1950s by fusing rhythm and blues, gospel, and blues styles into his early recordings with Atlantic Records. He also helped racially integrate country and pop music during the 1960s with his crossover success on ABC Records, most notably with his Modern Sounds albums. While with ABC, Charles became one of the first African-American musicians to be given artistic control by a mainstream record company.Frank Sinatra called Charles “the only true genius in show business.” more »

Tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well, you know what you done to me,
You made me fall for you

Tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well you know you can make me do what you want me to

Loving you, feelings started
But, I'm goin' to stop it

If I could, I surely would
I would roll up around you
If I thought it would do any good

Why don't you tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well you know you can make me do what you want me to

(bridge)

Loving you, feelings started
But, I'm goin' to stop it

If I could, I surely would
I would roll up around you
If I thought it would do any good

Why don't you tell the truth
Tell the truth
Well you know you can make me do what you want me to

Whooah, come on, tell the truth, now
(tell the truth)
And I know, I know, baby
(tell the truth)
Every day, every night
(tell the truth)
Whooah, hold me tight
(tell the truth)
And I know, and I know
(tell the truth)
You `oughta, you `oughta
(tell the truth)
Stop Lying
(tell the truth)
Stop Lying, whooh
(tell the truth)
Whoooh
(tell the truth)
Whoooh
(tell the truth)
Oh baby
(tell the truth)
Now tell the truth
(tell the truth)
Every day of your life, tell the truth little girl
(tell the truth)
What about that man you were with last night
(tell the truth)
I want to know
(tell the truth)
Come on baby
(tell the truth)
Hey hey
(tell the truth)
Every day of your life, you `oughta
(tell the truth)
