Verse 1
His Name Was John Born In Booth, Alabama,
5'11" With His Boots On, But That Ain't What He Would Tell You.
He Kind Of Talked Like The Movies If Hollywood Had An Accent.
And I Wasn't Going To Tell Him That I Loved Him, But It Kind Of Just Happened.
Chorus
He Was A Sure Thing Of Forever Kind.
It Still Kills Me That It Was All A Lie.
I Could Drag His Name Through The Mud,
But It's Something That I Just Won't Do.
And If He Sounds Like You,
Well, The Only Thing That Ain't True Is His Name Was John.
Verse 2
Her Name Was Abby.
Yeah, I Guess I Went On For Months,
But She Swore She Didn't Know A Thing About Me.
I Didn't Get A Good Time. No, I Never Got A Reason.
Now I'm Sad And I'm Done And I'm Mad And I'm Numb.
And I Guess It's What I Get For Believing.
Chorus
He Was A Sure Thing Of Forever Kind.
It Still Kills Me That It Was All A Lie.
I Could Drag His Name Through The Mud,
But It's Something That I Just Won't Do.
And If He Sounds Like You,
Well, The Only Thing That Ain't True Is His Name Was John.

Outro
He Was A Short Thing, The Forever Kind. When He Broke Me, He Didn't Blink An Eye.
I Could Drag His Name Through The Mud. But It's Something That I Just Won't Do.
And If He Sounds Like You,
Well, He Sounds Like You, But His Name Was John.
Born In Booth, Alabama, 5'11" With His Boots On.
Who Knows What He Would Tell You?
