The Chicken in Black - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]

Written by：Gary Gentry[00:00:01]

For two long years my head hurt bad[00:00:10]

So a doctor checked me and he shook his head[00:00:12]

He said I'm sorry to tell you but your body's outlived your brain[00:00:15]

He said I know this doctor in New York son[00:00:20]

And he'll fix you right up with a brand new one[00:00:22]

So the head doctor met me when I stepped down off of the train[00:00:25]

He said we had this bank robber killed last night[00:00:30]

His body's shot but his brain's alright[00:00:33]

I'll give you a transplant boy and you'll be OK[00:00:36]

I got my new brain in and I was feeling great[00:00:40]

I went right back to Nashville with no headache[00:00:43]

But something strange happened when I walked in the bank one day[00:00:45]

I said stick 'em up everybody I'm robbing this place[00:00:50]

Drop all of your money in my guitar case[00:00:53]

Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door[00:00:56]

A lady said why you're johnny cash[00:01:01]

I said no ma'am I'm the Manhattan flash[00:01:03]

And I am the best bank robber in New York[00:01:06]

Now the other night Roy Acuff called me[00:01:11]

He said john I'd like for you to do the opry[00:01:14]

So I went out on the stage but I couldn't sing[00:01:16]

I got into a half a verse of I walk the line[00:01:21]

And something snapped in this head of mine[00:01:24]

I yelled stick 'em up give me your money your watches and rings[00:01:26]

Well I called New York and talked to that brain quack[00:01:34]

And said doc I gotta have my old brain back[00:01:37]

He said I'm sorry there MR cash but I can't do that[00:01:39]

He said I put your brain in a chicken last Monday[00:01:44]

He's singing your songs and making lots of money[00:01:46]

And I got him signed to a ten year recording contract[00:01:49]

Now friends if you see me walking down the street[00:01:54]

Remember what you see ain't necessarily me[00:01:56]

And if I try to hold you up don't pay me no mind[00:01:59]

But when you got ten bucks that you can blow[00:02:04]

You oughta catch that johnny chicken show[00:02:07]

He's doing fairs and concert dates all up and down the line[00:02:09]

I said stick 'em up everybody I'm robbing this place[00:02:14]

Drop all of your money in my guitar case[00:02:17]

Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door[00:02:19]

A lady said why you're johnny cash[00:02:24]

I said no ma'am I'm the Manhattan flash[00:02:27]

And I am the best bank robber in New York[00:02:29]

Well I don't pay any income tax[00:02:36]

You don't pay tax on money you steal[00:02:39]

You oughta catch that johnny chicken show[00:02:42]

Chicken in black[00:02:46]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm[00:02:49]
