I had a friend Bill Campbell
who used to rob steal and gamble
And on the side he begged so he mopped up
I told old Bill he shouldn't do it
and Old Bill said that he knew it
So he started beggin' with a bucket
instead of a cup

Chorus 3rd line:
Well Old Bill really flubbed his dub
when he wore a tuxedo to the country club

Old Bill had a friend named Sadie
and she asked if I'd seen Bill lately
No, I don't believe that he's about
Well Old Sadie wet down to the jail
it was just to throw his bail

please don't let him out

Chorus 3rd line:
While Old Bill's away
Sadies with the Sheriff everyday

Do you remeber the last election?
The prohibitionists were in action
Trying to elect themselves a President
Bill Campbell and John Austin
drove from New Orleans to Boston
And bought them a bottle in every settlement

Chorus 3rd line:
They caught 'em down by the railroad track
Stealin' a train just to haul it back

Johnny Cash biography

Johnny Cash, born February 26, 1932, as J. R. Cash, in Kingsland, Arkansas, to Ray (1897-1985) and Carrie (née Rivers) Cash (1904-1991), and raised in Dyess, Arkansas, was an American singer, songwriter, actor, author, and Biblical scholar, who was one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music artist, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll, especially early in his career, as well as blues, folk, and gospel. Late in his career, Cash covered songs by several rock artists.

Cash was known for his deep, distinctive bass-baritone voice, for his demeanor and for his dark clothing, which earned him the nickname, "The Man in Black." He traditionally started his concerts by saying, "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash."

Much of Cash's music, especially that of his later career, echoed themes of sorrow, moral tribulation and redemption......MORE.....(full Johnny Cash biography)
