johnny (not cash)

Note written by Johnny Cash July 11 2003, three months after June's death

American V: A Hundred Highways was released on 4 July 2006, nearly 3 years after Johnny Cash's death.

Recorded in 2003, the album contains one of the last songs the 71-year-old Cash recorded ("Like the 309," which Cash also wrote), and like the rest of the "American" series, contains cover versions of other songs, and re-recorded versions of earlier Cash recordings (going back as far as 1962 for "I'm Free from the Chain Gang Now," written by Lou Herscher and Saul Klein).

And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear, blue sky

And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, big river
