Nina Simone - Tell It Like It Is lyrics

[Nina Simone - Tell It Like It Is lyrics]

Now, if you want something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
'Cause little boy my time is too expensive
And I'm not a little boy
So if you are serious, don't
Play with my heart, it makes me furious
But if you want me to love
You, you know I will, you know I will
Tell it like it is

Don't be ashamed
Let your conscience be your guide
I know deep down inside of me
I believe you love me
So forget your foolish pride
Life is too short for sorrow
You may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might as well get what you want
So go on and please tell it like it is

I'm nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Tell it like it is (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Tell it like it is (Like it is, ooh)
