Johnny Cash Is Gone
From the album Crooked Path
Johnny Cash is Gone ©2007 Michael Jerling It still does not seem right That Johnny Cash is gone He was larger than life Like some ancient warrior god Who strode the earth ten thousand years ago Mmm... Johnny Cash is gone He wrestled with his demons Deep inside a cave He once was held in bondage And twice his soul was saved First by the Lord The second time was by a woman’s love Mmm... Johnny Cash is gone He never lost that dangerous Rockabilly streak And he could flip the bird To the powers that be He sang the salt of the earth And marked the sparrow’s fall Mmm... Johnny Cash is gone I remember him on TV When I was a kid I didn’t care about country music None of my family did Still I could see that man in black Was the real thing Mmm... Johnny Cash is gone It still does not seem right That Johnny Cash is gone He was larger than life Like some ancient warrior god Who strode the earth ten thousand years ago Mmm... Johnny Cash is gone Mmm... Johnny Cash is gone
