Abner Brown - Johnny Cash[00:00:01]

Every town has its town bum[00:00:06]

I guess ours had one[00:00:09]

Here's a song about him I remember him fondly[00:00:11]

Well his name was Abner Brown[00:00:14]

I knew an old drunk named Abner Brown[00:00:23]

And nobody knew when he came to town[00:00:29]

But he spread good will to his fellow men[00:00:34]

And they let him sleep in the cotton gin[00:00:40]

He could drink more brew than an army could[00:00:44]

But he had more friends and he did more good[00:00:50]

Than a lot of fine fancy people in our town[00:00:56]

So they tolerated Abner Brown[00:01:02]

And all us kids were on his side[00:01:06]

'Cause he told us tales till our eyes grew wide[00:01:11]

And he made us feel bout ten feet tall[00:01:16]

'Cause he had no kids but he claimed us all[00:01:23]

And after school and on weekends[00:01:28]

You could find me down at the cotton gin[00:01:33]

The truest friend that I ever found was[00:01:38]

A good old drunk named Abner Brown[00:01:45]

Abner Brown I wish that I could see you once again[00:01:50]

I believe that you'd stack up with all the mighty men[00:01:55]

I've met and known in all the low[00:01:59]

And higher places that I've been[00:02:02]

Thinking of you picks me up when I'm feeling down[00:02:05]

I thank the Lord for making Abner Brown[00:02:11]

Lord take me back to the cotton land[00:02:18]

To Arkansas take me home again[00:02:24]

Let me be the boy that I once have been[00:02:29]

Let me walk that road to the cotton gin[00:02:35]

He's probably dead many years ago[00:02:40]

And gone the way that old drunks go[00:02:45]

But I'd still like to sit me down[00:02:50]

Talk to my old friend Abner Brown[00:02:56]

Abner Brown I wish that I could see you once again[00:03:01]

I believe that you'd stack up with all the mighty men[00:03:06]

I've met and known in all the low[00:03:11]

And higher places that I've been[00:03:14]

Thinking of you picks me up when I'm feeling down[00:03:17]

I thank the Lord for making Abner Brown[00:03:22]

I thank the Lord for making Abner Brown[00:03:28]
