Cool Hand Luke - Buy The Truth lyrics

If I had a dime For every dollar I've wasted Trying to be happy I could retire Because I would be miserably wealthy Then I'd have the time To see that I'd thrown out my life Like the paper And maybe the time By God's grace to start it all over Buy the truth Though it costs all you have Buy the truth Don't ever sell it out What good is a tool In the hand of a fool If you don't buy wisdom? If I sold You out I could make enough money To live for a while Walk in the room And important people would smile Hold my head proud And know I had made the best Business decision Wave at the crowds Who give me their money Like it was religion Buy the truth Though it costs all you have Buy the truth Don't ever sell it out What good is a tool In the hand of a fool If you don't buy wisdom? Please Don't make yourself at home Please Don't make yourself at home Please Don't make yourself at home Please Don't make yourself at home The land of opportunity And superficiality Syncretized theology A compromised reality God, touch our eyes Expose the lies That waste our lives And block the light A future hope That we'll wake up And see the truth For what's it's worth Buy the truth Though it costs all you have Buy the truth Don't ever sell it out What good is a tool In the hand of a fool If you don't buy wisdom?
