Johnny Cash - Unearthed Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Long Black Veil Lyrics

Ten years ago on a cold dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me

Johnny Cash - I Hung My Head Lyrics

Early one morning with time to kill
I borrowed Jebb’s rifle and sat on the hill
I saw a lone rider crossing the plain
I drew a bead on him to practice my aim

More Johnny Cash - I Hung My Head Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Wayfaring Stranger Lyrics

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world below
Yet there's no sickness, no toil, no danger
In that bright land to which I go

More Johnny Cash - Wayfaring Stranger Lyrics

Johnny Cash - One Lyrics

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
If you've got someone to blame

More Johnny Cash - One Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Solitary Man Lyrics

Belinda was mine
Till the time that I found her
Holdin' Jim
And lovin' him

More Johnny Cash - Solitary Man Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Southern Accents Lyrics

There's a southern accent, where I come from
The young uns call it country the Yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything is done, with a southern accent, where I come from

More Johnny Cash - Southern Accents Lyrics

Johnny Cash - The One Rose Lyrics

So blue lonesome too
But still true
Rosie haunts me
Makes me think of you

Johnny Cash - Rusty Cage Lyrics

You wired me awake
And hit me with a hand of broken nails
You tied my lead and pulled my chain
To watch my blood begin to boil

More Johnny Cash - Rusty Cage Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Rowboat Lyrics

Rowboat row me to the shore
She don't wanna be my friend no more
She dug a hole in the bottom of my soul
She don't wanna be my friend no more

More Johnny Cash - Rowboat Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Down There By The Train Lyrics

There's a place I know where the train goes slow
Where the sinner can be washed in the blood of the lamb
There's a river by the trestle down by sinner's grove
Down where the willow and the dogwood grow

More Johnny Cash - Down There By The Train Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Bird On A Wire Lyrics

Like a bird on a wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free

More Johnny Cash - Bird On A Wire Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Thirteen Lyrics

Bad luck wind been blowing at my back
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at
Got the number thirteen tattooed on my neck
When the ink starts to itch, then the black will turn to red

More Johnny Cash - Thirteen Lyrics

Johnny Cash - Delia's Gone Lyrics

Delia, oh, Delia, Delia all my life
If I hadn't have shot poor Delia, I'd have had her for my wife
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

Johnny Cash - Understand Your Man Lyrics

Don't call my name out your window, I'm leavin'
I won't even turn my head
Don't sent your kinfolks to give me no talkin'
I'll be gone, like I said
