If I Told You Who It Was Lyrics - Out Among The Stars - Johnny Cash

If I told you who it was - Johnny Cash 

I was down in music city 'bout a week ago 

I wanted to see the brand old Loper show, 

so I held a cap and I headed down to Opryland 

They said they sold their last ticked the day before, 

so I kinda just hung around the backstage door 

and down the steps she came, men oh men 

My favourite female country star, 

she waved her fans and headed for her car 

Her tire, unlike her body, was very flat 

She said, could you change my tire 

I said your wish is my desire 

As she raised the lid, I grabbed her bomber jack 

She said I sure do appreciate you're changing my tire

If I told you who it was, if I told you who it was 

You'd say I was making it up 

You've seen her on the screen and in country magazines 

You'd think I was making it up 

She said it was our little secret and my gully, Oh I'm gonna keep it 

Anyway you wouldn't believe it If I told you who it was 

She said you need a lift and I said well, 

you can drop me of at the York motel, 

so we headed down Briley parkway in the town 

I told her I got all your records ma'am, 

she smiled and said well I be damned 

She said, you're kind of cute fellar, wanna mess around? 

When we got to my room just the people lied 

I said sure wish I could've heard you sing tonight 

She smiled at me and said what do you wanna hear? 

Well if I was one of them country music folks 

I'll tell you, she'd sure get my vote for the best performance of the year

If I told you who it was, if I told you who it was 

You'd say I was making it up 

You've seen her on the screen and in country magazines 

You'd think I was making it up 

She said it was our little secret and my gully, Oh I'm gonna keep it 

Anyway you wouldn't believe it If I told you who it was 

Well I tell you this much, 

when I put my arms around her and squeezed her real tight 

She looked up at me with those big beautiful eyes, 

took a deep breath in the side and said 

Howdy I'm just so proud to be here 

If I told you who it was, if I told you who it was 

You'd say I was making it up 

You've seen her on the screen and in country magazines 

You'd think I was making it up 

She said it was our little secret and my gully, Oh I'm gonna keep it 

Anyway you wouldn't believe it If I told you who it was
