Johnny Cash - The Chicken In Black Lyrics

For two long years my head hurt bad
So the doctor checked me and he shook his head
He said I'm sorry to tell you put your body's out lived your brain
He said I know this doctor in New York son
And he'll fix you right up with a brand new one
So the head doctor met me when I stepped down off the train.


He said we had this bank robber killed last night
His body's shot but his brain's alright
I'll give you a transplant boy and you'll be okay.


I got my new brain in and I was feelin' great
I went right back to Nashville with no head ache
But somethin' strange happened when I walked in the bank one day.

Refrão

I said stick 'em up everybody I'm robbin' this place
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door
A lady said why you're Johnny Cash
I said no ma'am, I'm The Manhatton Flash
And I am the best bank robber, in New York.


Now the other night Roy Acuff called me
He said John I'd like you to do the Orpy
So I went out on the stage, but I couldn't sing
I got into half a verse of I Walk The Line
And somethin' snapped in this head of mine
I yelled stick 'em up, give me your money your watches and your rings.



Well I called New York and talked to that brain quack
I said doc I got to have my old brain back
He said I'm sorry there Mr. Cash but I can't do that.
He said I put your brain in a chicken last Monday
He's singin' your songs and makin' lots of money
And I got him signed to a ten year recordin' contract.


Now friends if you see me walkin' down the street
Remember what you see ain't necessarly me
And if I try to hold you up, don't pay me no mind.
But when you got ten bucks that you can blow Db
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken Show
He's doin' fairs and concert dates all up and down the line.


refrão

I said stick 'em up everybody I'm robbin' this place
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door
A lady said why you're Johnny Cash
I said no ma'am, I'm The Manhattan Flash
And I am the best bank robber, in New York.

Well it don't pay any income tax
You don't pay tax on money you steal
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken Show
Chicken In Black.
