Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

Borderline

As usual you just wouldn't listen waitin' for your turn to talk while I explain

You just wouldn't stop and listen so you got your heart run over by a mystery train

I tried to warn you from the start you must be careful of my kind

Not quite crazy not quite sane right on the borderline

How many times I told you it's got nothin' to do with you why can't you see

But there's a difference in our music you've got yours but mine's got me

I stay up day and night for nothin' puttin' words on paper I can't find

Not quite crazy not quite sane right on the borderline

It's a musical whodunit you know how people love a mystery

There ain't no knot untangable the only thing unchangeable is me

So if you're gonna stay get ready to go through this from time to time

I'm not quite crazy I'm not quite sane right on the borderline
