I left prison today, but I think I'll be back soon

When I was just a baby, my momma told me,
"Son, always be a good boy; don't ever play with guns.

2. "But I shot a man in Reno,

Just to watch him die,
When I hear that whistle blowin',
I hang my head and cry."

I was just listening to that a few hours ago. Thanks for the link.

7. You've probably seen this one already. . .

12. Johnny says, "My inspiration, June Carter "

We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talkin' bout Jackson ever since the fire went out
I'm goin' to Jackson gonna mess around
Yeah I'm a goin' to Jackson you know I'm Jackson bound

17. Great song originally done by Sting

and then even better by Cash.

[Ptah]

18. Sting before Johnny?

I'm spinning here

You make me dizzy

[Maestro]

19. Yeah, if I am thinking of the same song.

This song came out in the early 2000s or late 90s, I can't remember, when Cash did a bunch of covers that rivaled even the originals. He did covers from Sting, Soundgarden, Nine Inch Nails and a ton others. I love his version of Rusty Cage by Soundgarden and Hurt
I hope your son is doing alright in there.

[Ptah]

20. I think he copied it.

[Maestro]

21. Probably so.

It never seemed like a song he would do and paid no attention to the song until Cash gave his version.

[Ptah]

22. Sting, Soundgarden, Nine Inch Nails all tried to cover, never made it.
