Story Behind The Song
Johnny and June exemplified true love to me, and I wanted to write about it. I listened to their music while I wrote down every part of a loving relationship, cuddling, fights, treasures. It's become one of my favorites!
Song Description
I hope everyone has a love like Johnny and June's. So much love and respect when you see them sing. That's what I tried to capture in the lyrics, and I wanted to slip in a few of Johnny's references like "I'm a mighty fool for you." It's a tribute to them, and my chance to write a country duet.

Lyrics
Like Johnny and June by Georgie Rhein
Every day when I wake up, your smile's my mornin' sun
It's when I feel how close our love's become.
Even if we disagree, I'm not too surprised.
Making up with you feels mighty fine.
Like Johnny and June, we've got a love so true CHORUS
I'm a mighty fool for you
Come rain or shine, I can't get enough,
Of a love like Johnny and June.
We believe the golden rule. Be good to one another.
To share a life means sharing troubles.
Oh, we'll have changes, sleepless nights, too
Whatever comes, we'll see it through
CHORUS REPEATS then go to Bridge:
While this 'ol world spins 'round and 'round, your love keeps me on solid ground.
If I could make a wish, it would be forever
So memories become a lasting treasure
I want to show we took the time
To always say, I'm glad that you're mine. GO BACK TO CHORUS FOR FINAL
End: Come rain or shine, I can't get enough, Of a love like Johnny and June.
