Lyrics:
Then he nodded at my guitar and said: "It's a tough life, ain't it?"
I just looked at him and he said: "You ain't making any money, are you?"
I said: "You've been reading my mail"
He just smiled and said: "Let me see that guitar
I've got something you oughta hear"
Then he laid it on me
If you waste your time a-talking to the people who don't listen
To the things that you are saying, who do you think's going to hear
And if you should die explaining how the things that they complain about
Are things they could be changing who do you think's going to care?

Thank you Johnny Cash for posting from heaven
Shut up spammer!!!
That's ok, cash me outside killing the devil, how bou dah?
Thank as well mr
One of Johnny’s most underrated tracks
I agree-Bought that LP years ago and keeping it for sure
Kris Kristofferson wrote it
@@ritterboy69 that figures, Kris Kristofferson was always a really great songwriter. Johnnys voice brings it alive too, though
“I ain’t saying I beat the devil, but I drank his beer for nothing… then I stole his song🤷🏻😎”
hes just mad because i bought my yamaha three wheeler from joe
...Johnny may have been who beat the devil in Georgia...
Years has passed since his passing. Yet, the words are the words of wisdom.
Jesus and johnny.
Thank you.
This is needed.
The devil had my soul, but he dont know more.
The man was blessed to have LOVE And FRIENDSHIP. I'm jealous.
I bought this album when it first came out. Every song is great. Johnny was one of a kind. Miss him a lot. Hope to meet him in the Kingdom.
I bought it as well-It dont get better than this-Kristofferson lyrics-Johnny Cash singing it-
Amen- I have the album too- must have bought it 40+ years ago.
If I Never Have a Nickle I'll Never Die Ashamed 💞✌F4R Living In My Radio

Hi! Many blessings.. The Living God was here...
Lyrics
It was winter time in Nashville, down on music city row.
And I was lookin' for a place to get myself out of the cold.
To warm the frozen feelin' that was eatin' at my soul.
Keep the chilly wind off my guitar.
My thirsty wanted whisky; my hungry needed beans,
But it'd been of month of paydays since I'd heard that eagle scream.
So with a stomach full of empty and a pocket full of dreams,
I left my pride and stepped inside a bar.
Actually, I guess you'd could call it a Tavern:
Cigarette smoke to the ceiling and sawdust on the floor;
Friendly shadows.
I saw that there was just one old man sittin' at the bar.
And in the mirror I could see him checkin' me and my guitar.
An' he turned and said: "Come up here boy, and show us what you are."
I said: "I'm dry." He bought me a beer.
He nodded at my guitar and said: "It's a tough life, ain't it?"
I just looked at him. He said: "You ain't makin' any money, are you?"
I said: "You've been readin' my mail."
He just smiled and said: "Let me see that guitar.
"I've got something you oughta hear."
Then he laid it on me:
"If you waste your time a-talkin' to the people who don't listen,
"To the things that you are sayin', who do you think's gonna hear.
"And if you should die explainin' how the things that they complain about,
"Are things they could be changin', who do you think's gonna care?"
There were other lonely singers in a world turned deaf and blind,
Who were crucified for what they tried to show.
And their voices have been scattered by the swirling winds of time.
'Cause the truth remains that no-one wants to know.
Well, the old man was a stranger, but I'd heard his song before,
Back when failure had me locked out on the wrong side of the door.
When no-one stood behind me but my shadow on the floor,
And lonesome was more than a state of mind.
You see, the devil haunts a hungry man,
If you don't wanna join him, you got to beat him.
I ain't sayin' I beat the devil, but I drank his beer for nothing.
Then I stole his song.
And you still can hear me singin' to the people who don't listen,
To the things that I am sayin', prayin' someone's gonna hear.
And I guess I'll die explaining how the things that they complain about,
Are things they could be changin', hopin' someone's gonna care.
I was born a lonely singer, and I'm bound to die the same,
But I've got to feed the hunger in my soul.
And if I never have a nickle, I won't ever die ashamed.
'Cause I don't believe that no-one wants to know.
:)
Erald, Thanks for the lyrics 👍🏼
Thanks for The Lyrics. God Bless!!
Thank you 🙏
I love My Johnny Cash! FOREVER

GUITAR MAN HE A GANGSTER FOR THE GOOD
Another great track from probably the best studio album J. R. did at Columbia Records. Also the first studio album featuring Bob Wootton on lead guitar, replacing the late, legendary Luther Perkins.
Agree- Got that album- a keepsake.
Good stuff here
Wow ! Brings me back about more than 50 years ago when living in Quebec we discovered the Johnny Cash show on american TV ! It was a discovery which brought me incredible joy, hope in human race and unfortunately deep sorrow when he passed away in 2003....but he is always in my heart and when I feel low and lonely I I always turn to his songs ans his unforgettable voice. God bless hum whevever he is
❤🌷🙂🖐
Wisdom words never fade away ! Jr was full of them
You would need to walk a long ass time to hear an eagle scream. Believe that
Thanks third fatherly figure

Will there be a way?
Nothing spooky about it, Johnny is posting from Heaven.

"I don't believe that no-one wants to know"

@@BrianMcAleer123 i think "recognise" instead of "know". we all have them. some people can't see 'em.
... straordinario lui ....
Rip immortal🎼❤️😊🔝
Thank you Johnny boy 🙏🏻
Kris Kristopherson said that this song was inspired by Johnny.
Johnny cash post me some songs from heaven . give me one when sing at charlotte NC
I aint saying I beat the devil. But I drank his beer for nothing. Was a better line ever wriiten?
A greatly written song and good by John. I prefer Waylon’s version but both good
Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson are a perfect match.
Kristofferson/Cash. The devil has no chance, ha ha.
I love Sue she's my favorite step grandma she would tell you she was my inspection
What should I say?
He was my friend!
Since I was born 1962!
Jonny Cash!
My Idol and my Friend since 1962.
He was my brother and I was very lucky to be able to see him!
Jonny Cash, what can I say about you?
You know, it's a good question?
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Okay.🤔
I walk the line with you a d I feel, that you are clouse neer by my side!
I/we miss you, and all fan's this time, when you leaf us!
I do identify as Chrisrian; but Not in the eyes of judgmental, traditionalists..so Ive been called(unkind-words), lol...yet, isn't forebearance, mercy, light, unconditional Love, the steriotypes can't describe us personally, the mere word implies contradiction. BIG Admirer, I met June Carter Cash & Johnny Cash at about age 12...They Were True-HEROEs to me that day, in a way that has been priceless, even in middle age now. They "Walked The Line" Didn't 0nly "Talk the Talk"!☆GRACE~BLESS Those Merciful to a Kid in distress🙏🎶💖😅
@Johnnycashmusicworld Likewise, Sir . I Thank the Lord they were 'in the right spot, at the right time'♡ ...And I Thank You , nuce channel!🕊🌎
@JohnnycashmusicworldHello again🕊 I can't say I have . My most recent concert was 2009, Liza Minelli . I would love to hear about your show♡ My history isn't 'pretty', however, the day I mentioned, changed my life in a way I can't say here . Such as June Carter gave me food & drink, l.istened to a child, no one else 'heard' ..As is said; "We walk among angels unawares" . Grace & Blessings to you ☆🎶🙏🕊
@Johnnycashmusicworld 🐎🐎Louisville Ky. ..and you Sir? I grew up approx. 90 to 100 miles from Nashville music city . I was 'groomed to be an entertainer, my older siblings; living their lives vicariously through me . I love music, but not their genre, tactics . I worked in radio broadcasting, met alot of famous ppl, there...but June Carter Cash, turned out to be the *1 that mattered, what I shared with her, she listened, and she didn't forget . Im just a survivor, but June & Johnny, were the kindest & didn't forget .🕊🎶🌻

I thought this was written by Kris Kristofferson...his version is more authentically expressive
instead of the choir, they should have brought yoko in for some squawking.
You could always tell Johnny was dining about Jesus Christ.
Previously unreleased?
No
I don't think so. I heard that most commited song more than 50 years ago when I was living in Montreal but sorry I can't find the ref. It was so long ago but stil vivid in my heart....
It was on his Hello, I'm Johnny Cash album.
@@eraldhysenbelli5719 yeah your jealous because you dont have one
The Australian Federal Police 131237 and the nsw police 131444 Australia have been suggesting that it's all over and no more voices tommorow when you wake up and that's the way its been this Christmas and new year and the last couple of 3 before this 2023 new year 🇦🇺🚔👮🏼♂️🍾🥂🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳💵
