Well they closed down the auto plant in Mahwah late last month
Ralph went out lookin' for a job but he couldn't find none
He came home too drunk from mixin' Tanqueray and wine
He got a gun shot a night clerk now they call him Johnny 99
Dawn in that part of town where when you hit red light you don't stop
Johnny's wavin' his gun around and threatin' to blow his top
When an off duty cop snuck up on him on from behind
Out in front of the club Tip Top they slapped the cuffs on Johnny 99
Well the city suplied a public defender but the judge was mean John Brown
He came into the courtroom and stared poor Johnny down
Well the evidence is clear gonna let the sentence fit the crime
Prison for 98 and a year will make it even Johnny 99
A fist fight broke out in the courtroom they had to drag Johnny's girl away
His mama stood up and shouted judge don't take my boy this way
Well son you got any statement you'd like to make
Before the bailiff comes to forever take you away
Yes judge I got debts no honest man could pay
The bank was holdin' my mortgage they was takin' my house away
Now I ain't sayin' that makes me an innocent man
But it was more than all this that put that gun in my hand
And your honor I do believe I'd be better off dead
If you can take a man's life for the thoughts that are in his head
Then won't you sit back in that chair and think it over one more time
And let 'em shave off my hair and burn Johnny 99
Johnny Cash (Kingsland, Arkansas, 26 febbraio 1932 – Nashville, Tennessee, 12 settembre 2003) è stato un cantante, musicista e attore statunitense, considerato uno dei più influenti artisti della musica country. Nato in una famiglia contadina del profondo sud, Cash iniziò a cantare nella chiesa locale e ad ascoltare la musica country alla radio. Dopo il servizio militare in Germania, dove imparò a suonare la chitarra, si trasferì a Memphis e iniziò la sua carriera musicale. Il suo stile unico, caratterizzato da un'intensa voce baritonale e testi spesso autobiografici che affrontavano temi come la povertà, la giustizia sociale e la lotta contro le dipendenze, lo rese rapidamente popolare. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "Ring of Fire", "I Walk the Line", "Folsom Prison Blues" e "A Boy Named Sue". Cash ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui June Carter Cash, sua moglie dal 1968 fino alla sua morte. Ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award nel 1997. La sua musica continua ad essere apprezzata da generazioni di fan in tutto il mondo.
