It Takes One To Know One - Mott The Hoople

Well didya ever get the feelin'

That the world ain't right

Like when you're standing

In the dance-hall someone picks a fight

He says Hey

C'mere long-hair I saw ya lookin' at my chick

You gotta get away quick

And as you turn to make a run he throws a punch at your head

You know you gotta make the exit or you're gonna be dead

But when you finally hit the sidewalk you can tell

That you ain't going too far

'Cos someone stole your car

And it's the same play each day can't pay no way

They gotcha in a hole yOU know

It's the same old reason and the same old rhyme

And the snakes are out to bite you everytime

But not me babe

It takes one to know one

It takes one to know one

It takes one to know one

And I know you

You know I tried to call my baby

Tried to make a date

She said I'm awful sorry honey

But you called too late

Y'see i've gotta drive my Daddy

To a meeting of the PTA

I can't come out to play

So then I took me off downtown

And met this chick in a bar

She took me back to her apartment in her Jaguar

But when we started rockin'

She threw me straight outta the door

There oughta be a law

And it's the same play each day

Can't pay there's no way

You're gonna get a break you know

It's the same old reason and the same old rhyme

She says she's got the feelin'

But she ain't got the time

I Don't gimme that jive babe

It takes one to know one

It takes one to know one

All right

It takes one to know one

And I know you

Well now it's Saturday night and I just got laid

But there's a shadow in the alley still gotta be paid

I heard it's tough at the top

But it sure looks good from the floor

They won't let you score

Every day it's getting rougher

And it's hard to survive

When there's a lotta people round

Don't wanna see you alive

They wanna take you to the cleaners

And leave you in the gutter to bleed

When they've got all they need

And it's the same play each day

Can't pay no way

You're gonna get a break you know

And it's the same old reason

And the same old rhyme

And the man still wants your life on the dotted line

But I got wise babe

It takes one to know one

It takes one to know one

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You

It takes one to know one

And I Know You
