Johnny One Time
( Written by A.L.Ownes - D. Frazier)
So he told you that you're the dreamed
That he's been searchin' for
And he told you that he never met
Anyone like you before
And I can hear him telling you
Your lips taste just like cherry wine
But did he tell you that he's known
As Johnny one time
(Oh) did he tell you
That your heart would soon become
Another trinket on his bracelet of broken heart
Did he tell you
That the morning sun will you find you patching up
Your shattered pride and searchin' for the missing part.
Did he tell you that the special love your saving
Will disappear in flames of shame like mine
(Oh) did it tell you that he's know
As Johnny one time
So he told you that he never lead
Your heart astray and he told you
That he'd love you forever and a day
And I can hear him telling you
That he's the shy and bashful kind
But did he tell you that is known
As Johnny one time
(Oh) did he tell you
That your heart would soon become
Another trinket on his bracelet of broken heart
And did he tell you
That the morning sun will you find you patching up
Your shattered pride and searchin' for the missing part.
Did he tell you that the special love your saving
Will disappear in flames of shame like mine
(Oh) did it tell you that he's know
As Johnny one time
Did he tell you
That your heart would soon become
Another trinket on his bracelet of broken heart
Did he tell you
That the morning sun will you find you patching up
Your shattered pride and searchin' for the missing part.
Did he tell you that the special love your saving
Will disappear in flames of shame like mine
(Oh) did it tell you that he's know
As Johnny one time
