I TELL IT LIKE IT USE TO BE T. Graham Brown 1. They say that I'm the kind of person who always speaks my mind. 2. I wish that I was stronger I could tell them that you've gone. To me there's nothing stronger then the truth. But that's one thing that I may never do. You can ask me almost anything and I'll tell you like it is. If they want to hear about our love and how it all went wrong. But darlin' when they ask me about you. Then darlin' they will just have to talk to you. Chorus: ( I tell it like it use to be When you were still in love with me Before you got to use to me and wanted someone new I tell it like it ought to be 'cause how it is is killing me When they ask about you and me I tell it like it use to be.
