- He rides this train
-
- Johnny Cash rides this train
across the country
- singing about the people of the
earth.
-
- In the middle of his music is a
cowboy dressed in black
- telling tales of his country's
western birth.
-
- He rides this train across the
plain
- says, "Hello" and tells you of
your worth.
-
- Sings of the Indian hero Ira
Hayes
- and how General Custer got his
due.
-
- Tells of outlaw lives out on the
plains
- and makes us feel like we're in
his crew.
-
- Wears black to let us know
everything's not fine.
- Then cracks us up, 'bout a boy
named sue.
-
- Smiles when he sings, and we don't
mind
- 'cause Johnny rides this train and
walks the line too.
-
- and remember this for sure, don't
make no jokes
- 'bout Mister Johnny Cash
-
- 'cause he'll always ride this
train.
