verse 1 Baby, my baby you accuse me Of flirting and hurting you no end You say baby I'm a cheater You oughta know that cheaters never win Because it takes one to know one who will hurt you It takes one to know one who'll make you blue It takes one to know one like I know you You're my kind hold my hand, Use your mind understand verse 2 Baby, my baby don't blame me For playing and saying things unkind You think baby I'm a loser But I could win if you were close behind me Because it takes one to know one who will love you It takes one to know one who will cry for you It takes one to know one like I know you You're my kind hold my hand, Use your mind understand Outro Baby, baby we're birds of a feather, Baby, baby we'll live together Baby I'm yours you are mine And it takes one to know one, It takes one to know one Yes it takes one to know one every time
