Johnny Cash It Takes One To Know Me (with June Carter Cash, guest vocal by Carlene Carter) Lyrics

it's true that I used to be crazy
and harder to love than most men
and the blood that ran in these tired hands
was harder and wilder back then
and I don't feel as tall as I used to
maybe it's just that I've grown
you're the one that held my hand when I fell
if I just couldn't make it alone

we've lived out all the stories
sang all the old songs
it takes one to know me
I guess you're the one

your daughters are ladies of fortune
and your son an heir to the throne

and though this crown that I hold is
tarnished and cold
it's a symbol of all that we own
sometimes I wish I was younger
and could pick up the pieces and run
but then I look back on the matter of fact
and it's a race that we've already won

we've lived out all the stories
sang all the old songs
it takes one to know me
I guess you're the one

we've lived out all the stories
sang all the old songs
it takes one to know me
and you knew the one
