Johnny Cash Ride This Train (Part 5) Lyrics:
Ride this train to Pionridge Mississippi see that
levee there It's built to hold back the waters of
Ol' Man River when he gets on a rampage And he
gets on a rampage believe me One of these days
he's gonna come right over that levee And we're
gonna have to head for the hills again And you
know how that levee was built Mister Not with
machines it is built with elbow grease They got
the men off the farms out of the houses Even out
of the honky tonks on Saturday night I don't
hardly know how it happened to me it happens fast

I just remember I was in the Green Lantern in
Natchez one Saturday night And somebody pulled a
knife and somebody threw the bottle And the next
thing I knew I had a chain on my leg and a shovel
in my hand It seemed like the whole world come
down on me They whipped us like miles and when
they did feed us There was always a fight or a
killin' over who's gonna get the biggest piece of
meet Whereas the boss man did't care about the
killin' That is less you killed a good worker then
you get killed If you complain about anything he
just liable to give you a chance to get away You
know what I mean They take the chains off your
legs and beg you to run so they can shoot you
