Cash Johnny – It Takes One To Know Me lyrics

(Johnny:) It's true that I used to be crazy
(June:) And harder to love than most men
(Johnny:) And the blood that ran in these tired hands
(Both:) Was hotter and wilder back then
(June:) And I don't feel as tall as I used to.
(Johnny:) Maybe it's just that I've grown. You're the one that held my hand when I felt
(Both:) If I just couldn't make it alone.
(Both:) We've lived out all the stories. Sang all the old songs.
(Johnny:) It takes one to know me.
(Both:) I guess you're the one.
(June:) Your daughters are ladies of fortunes and your son an heir to the throne.
(Johnny:) And though this crown that I hold is tarnished and cold
It's a symbol of all that we own.
(Johnny:) Sometimes, I wish I was younger and could pick up the pieces and run. But then I look back on the matter of fact.
(Both:) And it's a race that we've already won.
(Both:) We've lived out all the stories. Sang all the old songs.
(Johnny:) It takes one to know me.
(Both:) I guess you're the one.
(Both:) We've lived out all the stories. Sang all the old songs.
(Johnny:) It takes one to know me. And June, you're the one.
