| Johnny Cash - Understand Your Man (1964) |
Don’t call my name out your window, I’m leavin'
I won’t even turn my head.
Don’t sent your kinfolk to give me no talkin'
I’ll be gone, like I said.
You’d just say the same old things
That you be sayin' all along,
Just lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut,
Till I’m gone.
Don’t give me that old familiar cryin cussin' moan
Understand your man
I'm tired of you bad mouthing
Understand your man
You can give my other suit to the Salvation Army,
And everything else I leave behind --
I ain’t takin' nothin' that’ll slow down my travelin’
While i'm untangeling my mind.
I ain't gonna repeat, what i said anymore
While i'm breathing air that ain't been breath before.
I'll be as gone as a wild goose in winter
Then you'll understand your man
Meditate on it!
Understand your man
You hear me talking?
[fades away]
Understand your man
You remember what i told you?
