You Know

Damn all those people who don't lose control Who will never take a foot out of life You might not think that I care But you don't know what I know And damn all those hippies Who stomp empty footed Upon all what's good All what's pure of the world You might not think that I care But you don't know what I know And bless all those mothers Who do all they can Just to take their thoughts out of the line I might not know what it's like But I'm glad that you know Give me a minute there Just a minute now It'll come back to me I was so sure but you, Freewheelin' troubadour You took my mind off the scene And you know when I know then I know I know that you know You asked me blind once If I was a child once And I said I'm really not sure How can you know, how can you know What it is, you don't know We were a pair once Of oh such despair oh We were a child then I'm sure If we were a child then We are children no more Give me a minute there Just a minute now It'll come back to me I was so sure but you Freewheelin' troubadour You took my mind off the scene And you know when I know when I know I know that you know You know you know you know when I know I know that you know
