VERSE:  
       Won't you give me the low down
       Just as quick as you can
       Baby, I've been out of touch     
       Just give me the scam

VERSE:
       Don't give me 
       The sports page, baby
       No political news
       Don't you give me the gossip
       Just give me the truth
       Just between me and you

CHORUS:

       If you can
        C
       Don't want a show down
               D
       I just want to know
          E
       Where I stand

VERSE:
       Don't read me
       The horoscope babe
       That ain't what I need
       Our future will never last
       But that's between you and me

VERSE: 
       I don't want the movie section
       I'll see for myself
       I don't want the news that fits
       Shove it back on the shelf

       Give me the truth
       Just between me and you

CHORUS:
       
INSTRUMENTAL:  play chords to VERSE and CHORUS

VERSE:
       The headlines are screaming
       They change everyday
       As long as I ain't in them
       I'm happy that way

VERSE:
       I know that you won't lie to me
       But you hold back the truth
       Please give me the low down
       I can only get it from you

       Give me the truth
       Just between me and you

CHORUS:

VERSE:
       Give me the low down
       As quick as you can
       I don't want to hear about it
       I want it straight from you

       Give me the truth
       Just between me and you   6x's to fade
