	Story Behind the Song I had to write this song in our time of government mistrust, erosion of civil liberties, and blind allegiance. Johnny isnt/wasnt afraid to speak his mind, make mistakes, and admit to all of it. All the while, still a patriot. Message? Be true to yourself. Dont get walked on in the name of the flag and patriotism. Those who want to extinguish freedoms for short term security are the most un-American of all. And when you are in the dumps, down and depressed, draw inspiration from real heroes, not those concocted in the media and corporate icon machines. Lincoln, Lombardi, MLK, Woody Guthrie, Johnny Cash. Dont let the plastic bring you down my friend, Johnny wouldnt. Lyrics Ill Cry the Day Johnny Cash Dies Ill Cry the Day Johnny Cash Dies Ill Cry the Day Johnny Cash Dies Ill Cry on the day they say he passed away Ill Cry the Day Johnny Cash Dies I hear a song that speaks to me The singers not afraid to sing Not afraid to admit that hes done wrong Ill cry when Johnny Cash is gone He understands the plight of man Authoritys iron hand One mans right is another mans wrong Ill cry when Johnny Cash is gone Hey Man, dont you change that station Hey Man, thats the story of our nation Floods and fire and prison and pain Ill Cry on the day they say he passed away Ill Cry the Day Johnny Cash Dies There have been many great Americans Lindbergh Lombardi and Lincoln Catfish Hunter and Cheech and Chong Ill cry when Johnny Cash is gone Where have all the heroes gone Expectations sure have fallen Greed and lies and oil have won Ill cry when Johnny Cash is gone Hey Man, don’t you change that station Hey Man, that’s the story of our nation Flood and fire and prison and pain Ill Cry on the day they say he passed away Ill Cry the Day Johnny Cash Dies
