JOHHNY CASH

 

 

I remember what Ray Charles said, in his softest southern accent

I remember what Ray Charles said, just before he went to bed

 

And he would sing for us again,

the song for all the lonely men

 

The sweetest tune you’ve ever heard

Comes from the soul without a word

And someone else has made their choice

The nightingale got back his voice

 

Now I know how Johnny Cash felt, in the wilderness in Tulsa

Now I know how Johnny Cash felt, just before he went to bed

 

And he would sing for us again,

the song for all the lonely men

 

The sweetest tune you’ve ever heard

Comes from the soul without a word

And someone else has made their choice

The nightingale got back his voice

 

And he would sing for us again,

the song for all the lonely men

And he would sing for evermore

The song for all who were unsure

 

The sweetest tune you’ve ever heard

Comes from the soul without a word

And someone else has made their choice

The nightingale got back his voice.....
