Wreck of the Old 97 - Johnny Cash

When we are born, we are swaddled and snuggled Whispered to, fussed over, tickled and cuddled When we grow up, things get muddled And here it is Christmastime Will you stop by for a piece of delicious Peach pie while I tell you my yuletide wishes? You can help me do the dishes 'Cause here it is Christmastime We all want someone who will love us and hold us To curl up alongside when nights are the coldest We all want someone who will love us and kiss us All I want is you for Christmas Let us examine the holiday spirit Let the small kids sing, so we can all hear it Light up a fire and pull the chair near it 'Cause here it is Christmastime We all want someone who will love us and hold us To curl up alongside when nights are the coldest We all want someone who will hug us and kiss us All I want is you for Christmas When we are born, we are swaddled and snuggled Whispered to, fussed over, tickled and cuddled And when we grow up, things get muddled And here it is Christmastime We all want someone who will love us and hold us To curl up alongside when nights are the coldest We all want someone who will hug us and kiss us All I want is you for Christmas All I want is you for Christmas All I want is you for Christmas

Would your love in all its finery Tear at the darkness all around me Until I can breathe again Until I believe again 'Cause I'm a train wreck waiting to happen Waiting for someone to come pick me up off the tracks A wildfire born of frustration Born of the one love that gets me so high I've no fear at all Would your eyes like midnight fireflies Light up the trenches where my heart lies Until I can see again Find my way back again 'Cause I'm a train wreck waiting to happen Waiting for someone to come pick me up off the tracks A wildfire born of frustration Born of the one love that gets me so high I've no fear at all To fall so deep into you Lose myself completely In your sweet embrace All my pain's erased From your mouth, it's all that I wish The mercy of your lips, just one kiss Until I can breathe again Until I can sing again 'Cause I'm a train wreck waiting to happen Waiting for someone to come pick me up off the tracks A wildfire born of frustration Born of the one love that gets me so high I've no fear at all To fall so deep into you Lose myself completely In your sweet embrace All my pain's erased

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And she'll never know your story like I do 'Cause she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself "Hey, isn't this easy?" And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down You say, "You're fine", I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me Oh, I remember you driving to my house In the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh When you know you're 'bout to cry I know your favorite songs And you tell me 'bout your dreams Think I know where you belong Think I know it's with me Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me You belong with me Have you ever thought just maybe, you belong with me? You belong with me
