Johnny Cash Lyrics
Lyrics
It ain't me, babe
Hurt
Ring of fire
I walk the line
I won't back down
Cry, cry, cry
Folsom prison blues
I've been everywhere
25 minutes to go
Bridge over troubled
One piece at a time
Country boy
Man in black
Would you lay with me
I hung my head

Johnny Cash Oh, Bury me not Lyrics:
OH, BURY ME NOT (INTRODUCTION: A COWBOY'S PRAYER)
Written by: John A. Lomax [1] , Alan Lomax [2] , Tim Spencer [3] & Roy Rogers [4]
Performed by: Johnny Cash
Appears on: American Recordings (I)-1994, God-2000 & Love, God, Murder-2000.


[Recitation:]
Lord, I've never lived where churches grow.
I loved creation better as it stood,
That day you finished it so long ago,
And looked upon your work and called it good.
I know that others find you in the light,
That sifted down through tinted window panes.
And yet I seem to feel you near tonight,
In this dim, quiet starlight on the plains.
I thank you, Lord, that I'm placed so well,
That you've made my freedom so complete.
That I'm no slave to whistle, clock or bell,
Nor weak-eyed prisoner of Waller Street.
Just let me live my life as I've begun,
And give me work that's open to the sky.
Make me a partner of the wind and sun,
And I won't ask a life that's soft or high.
Let me be easy on the man that's down,
Let me be square and generous with all.
I'm careless sometimes, Lord, when I'm in town,
But never let them say I'm mean or small.
Make me as big and open as the plains,
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/1L3l ]
And honest as the horse between my knees.
Clean as the wind that blows behind the rains,
Free as the hawk that circles down the breeze.
Forgive me, Lord, if sometimes I forget,
You know about the reasons that are hid.
You understand the things that gall or fret,
Well, you knew me better than my mother did.
Just keep an eye on all that's done and said,
And right me sometimes when I turn aside.
And guide me on that long, dim trail ahead,
That stretches upward toward the great divide.

[Sung:]
"Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie."
These words came low and mournfully,
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay,
On his dyin' bed at the close of day.

"Oh, bury me not..." and his voice failed there.
But we took no heed to his dying prayer.
In a shallow grave just six by three,
We buried him there on the lone prairie.
