The One On the Right Is On the Left - Johnny Cash

Let's begin with the day I met her And how fast this good old boy's world got better Sky got bluer, the grass got greener Just the first few seconds after I first seen her Like my favourite song on a new set of speakers My best old jeans and my broke-in sneakers A home run pitch floatin' right down the middle The sweet music made when the bow hits the fiddle She's right on the money She goes direct to my heart And when it comes to lovin' me She's everything I need, bulls-eye perfect She's right on the money She's no red lights when I've overslept She's a three point jump shot that's nothing but net A handful of aces, when the dealer's done dealin' I'm forever on a roll, that's how she's got me feeling She's right on the money She goes direct to my heart And when it comes to lovin' me She's everything I need, bulls-eye perfect She's right on the money She's the best cook that's ever melted cheese I ain't much around the house, but I aim to please There's absolutely no reason to doubt her When she says I wouldn't last ten minutes without her She's right on the money She goes direct to my heart And when it comes to lovin' me She's everything I need, bulls-eye perfect She's, oh, right on the money She goes directly to my heart And when it comes to lovin' me She's everything I need, bulls-eye perfect She's right on the money (Oh, yeah)

You were the right way I was just waitin' for you to look at me Is there a wrong time? Baby, I'm guessin' Just let me know Just let me know Well, it's been a long time Since you've been lonely So what will I do? You are the right one And I'm just the boy who is lookin' at you So what will I do? I tried the wrong way I was just guessin', bidin' my time You are the only one I can picture by my side By my side

Play until my fingers hurt Write until I find the words (Ohh ohh) So much that I wanna say Before the moment slips away (Ohh ohh) So hard to find this place So hard to catch this chase Now that you fell into me Hit me like a melody (Ohh ohh) Everybody says that nothing ever lasts forever So I'm hanging on tight trying to keep it all tied together Everybody says that nothing ever lasts forever So I'm hanging on tight trying to keep it all tied together How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? Hold me like a photograph Fragile like a piece of glass (Ohh ohh) The future's headed for the past Full of sparks that couldn't last (Ohh ohh) So hard to find this place So hard to catch that flame Now that you fell into me Hit me like a melody (Ohh ohh) Everybody says that nothing ever lasts forever So I'm hanging on tight trying to keep it all tied together How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? How do we make this heart beat on and on? How do we make this heart beat on and on? Everybody says that nothing ever lasts forever So I'm hanging on tight trying to keep it all tied together How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat (heart beat) Everybody says that nothing ever lasts forever So I'm hanging on tight trying to keep it all tied together How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? And on and on And on and on How do we make this heart beat on and on? How do we make this heart beat on and on? How do we make this heart beat on and on? Play until my fingers hurt Write until I find the words (Ohh ohh)

I'm just a man, but I know that I'm damned All the dead seem to know where I am The tale that began on the night of my birth Will be done in a turn of the earth Lie where I land, let my bones turn to sand I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave it Every eye on the coast ever more Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore Under the waves and the earth of an age Lie a thousand old northerners' graves Deep in the night when the moon's glowing bright They come rising up into the night Die if I must, let my bones turn to dust I'm the lord of the lake and I don't want to leave it All who sail off the coast ever more Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore I'm going away for a long time I'm going away for a long time Lie where I land, let my bones turn to sand I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave it Every eye on the coast ever more Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore Die if I must, let my bones turn to dust I'm the lord of the lake and I don't want to leave it All who sail off the coast ever more Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore I'm going away for a long time

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
