lyrics

Be true to your heart ride in the cavalry
Come tear me apart, engage in revelry
Be true to you heart 'round here there's nothing else to do

I told my lover to be a-moaning, like all the good lovers do
She said "open up to me honey, then I sure will moan for you"
I tore my shirt apart and I thought it was funny, it wasn't what she thought or wanted of course
She only wanted my soul

Be true to your heart ride in the cavalry
And look for the stars, engage in revelry
Be true to your heart ‘round here there's nothing else to do

I told Bojangles to be dancing like all the good Bojangles do
He said "Move your own hips yourself baby, you already got those dancing shoes."
"But when I do it always gets rainy, can't you see I still need you."
"Just go to Hollywood, will you?"

Be true to your heart, ride in the cavalry
And look for the stars, your eyes are shimmery
Be true to your heart, 'round here there's nothing else to do

I told the church bells to be a-ringing, like all the good church bells do
They cried "boy don't you see that we're broken", I said "hell that just ain't no excuse.
Look at me and see I am broken, but all them spectators want me to work
Well I guess I am the jerk?"

I told my eyes to be seeing
my ears to be hearing
my voice to speak the truth
They were not quite in the mood

I’m true to my heart, true whenever I can
I'm true to my heart, whenever I feel like
Being true to my heart, when there is nothing else to do
