Hanny, you are right, of course. Love the song, and the melody. Also love it because Johnny wrote it as a tribute to Mother Maybelle. I have no idea on your song, so I will let someone else step up!

That would be the duet JRC did with non other than Merle Haggard "I'm Leaving Now" with another friend of ours Marty Stuart on lead guitar.

Abe, that must be "Letter From Home".
When Istarted living in Spain, I looked forward to a lot of letters from home and was lucky enough to receive them on time. Talking about the subject,

Here goes mine:

"If you think about my offer it'll be hard to refuse
Just be sure you think a long time on the answer that you choose"

Answer to Georgiabelle:

"West Canterbury Subdivision Blues" (one of my many favorites Wink )

here's another one:

"On a long lonesome highway and an old pickup truck crossed Texas with a hot dusty wind"

Andrea aka Cookie


"I have always had my heroes, I loved a lot of legends, many (wo)men in my mind are ridin' tall ..."('The Greatest Cowboy of them all' from 'A Believer Sings The Truth')
There'll always be people who touch our lives, but only a few that touch our souls. Thank you John and June - you and your music will always be an important part of my life.

That's from "All Around Cowboy" (album Look at Them Beans?)

Since it's rather hard to find Johnny Cash LP's, I'll try to give lyrics from songs that are on CD's, maybe this way it's easier for recent fans to jump in:

"Dead grass, dry roots, hunger crying in the night, Ghosts of broken hearts and laws are here"
