The Night Hank Williams Came To Town (feat. Waylon Jennings) - Johnny Cash

I've held it all inward, God knows I've tried But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life To look in the mirror in total surprise At the hair on my shoulders and the age in my eyes Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife It's a measure of people who don't understand The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band I got my first guitar when I was 14 Well, now I'm over 30, still wearing jeans Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

A long time forgotten, the dreams that just fell by the way The good life he promised, ain't what she's livin' today (Really?) But she never complains of the bad times Or the bad things he's done, Lord She just talks about the good times they've had And all the good times to come She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good timin' man She loves him in spite of his ways she don't understand Through tear-drops and laughter, they pass through this world hand in hand A good-hearted woman, lovin' a good timin' man He likes the bright lights, and night-life, and good timin' friends And when the party's all over, she'll welcome him back home again Lord knows, she don't understand him, but she does the best that she can A-this a-good hearted woman, lovin' a good timin' man She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good timin' man She loves me in spite of my wicked ways that she don't understand Through tear-drops and laughter they pass through this world hand in hand A good-hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good timin' man She loves me in spite of my wicked ways, she don't understand

I didn't say it Y'all have a good time Do what you want to Everybody knows you've been steppin' on my toes And I'm gettin' pretty tired of it Steppin' out of line And a-messin' with my mind If you had any sense, you'd quit 'Cause ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl You said I was the only man in this whole world Now you better do some thinkin', then you'll find You got the only daddy that'll walk the line You keep a-packin' up my clothes, nearly everybody knows That you're still just a-puttin' me on But when I start a-walkin' Gonna hear you start a-squawkin' And a-beggin' me to come back home 'Cause ever since you were a little bitty scrawny girl You said I was the only man in this whole world You better do some thinkin', then you'll find You got the only daddy that'll walk the line You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

I look for trouble and I found it son Straight down the barrel of a law man's gun I tried to run but I don't think I can You make one move and you're a dead man friend Ain't living long like this Can't live at all like this, can I baby? He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back And left me reeling on a steel reel rack They got 'em all in the jailhouse baby Ain't living long like this Can't live at all like this, can I baby? Grew up in Houston off the wayside drives Son of a car-hop and some all night dives Dad drove a stock car to an early death All I remember was a drunk man's breath Ain't living long like this Can't live at all like this, can I baby? You know the story how the wheel goes 'round? Don't let them take you to the man downtown Can't sleep at all in a jailhouse baby Ain't living long like this Can't live at all like this, can I baby? I live with angel she's a roadhouse queen Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee I want to love her but I don't know how I'm at the bottom in the jailhouse now Ain't living long like this Can't live at all like this, can I baby? You know the story about the jailhouse rock? Don't want to do it but just don't get caught They got 'em all in the jailhouse baby Ain't living long like this Can't live at all like this, can I baby?

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And she'll never know your story like I do 'Cause she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself "Hey, isn't this easy?" And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down You say, "You're fine", I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me Oh, I remember you driving to my house In the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh When you know you're 'bout to cry I know your favorite songs And you tell me 'bout your dreams Think I know where you belong Think I know it's with me Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me You belong with me Have you ever thought just maybe, you belong with me? You belong with me
