Lyrics

The Man in Black

To hear him tell it
He was a simple man
Just a man in black

From the cotton fields
To Nashville
He became the man in black

His dark shadow on the stage
Was bigger than life
When you heard him sing you knew

He was the man in black

Johnny, Cash, Johnny Cash, JohnnyCash

He was the man in black

He touched us all
All around the world
With his voice and his courage

Sometimes up, sometimes down
He kept his faith
Never got discouraged

He was the man in black

Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash
