Calilou


Well
I'm finally goin' back to
Louisiana
Runnin' and thumbin' all the way
That started out way out in
California
I been makin' bout five hundred miles a day
I covered all the beaches on the west coast
From
Mexico
Crason
City
Bay
But
Calilou was not in
California
That's where her daddy came from by the way
And by the way her mother was a cajun
She came from
New
Orleans
I've heard her say
And it's just like a girl to wanna see her mama
So
I might find her there along the way
Calilou
Calilou well they should have call you restless
Well they should have call you drifter
Yeah they should have call you trouble instead of
Calilou
I reacall the first time that
I saw her
I picked her up near
Phoenix in my car
Just another beauty seekin' fame and fortune
And
I told her if she should be a movie star
The next time
I saw her was
Tucumcari
She served my bowl of chili with a smile
I said it's been a year since
I last saw you
Wonder how'd you like to share a few good miles
Well the justice of the peace was very sleepy
I held her in my arms a whole night long
I whispered words like settle down and family
And when
I woke up my
Calilou was gone
Calilou
Calilou well they should have call you restless
Well they should have call you drifter
Yeah they should have call you trouble instead of
Calilou
Calilou
Calilou well they should have call you restless
Well they should have call you drifter
Yeah they should have call you trouble instead of
Calilou ********** [
Rambler ]
It's a long way to
New
Orleans [
Fisherman ]
Well
I got plenty of time [
Rambler ]
Me too you know it's lot of fun just seein' what the next day has to offer
You never know what round the next bend [
Fisherman ]
Or what we're gonna find either [
Rambler ]
Do you know what
I just wonder how long a man has to look before he finds himself **********
I just got the feelin' that the fire was burnin' out
Cause the air was turnin' colder every time you came about
And a flame won't take a fannin' if the last reserve of love is runnin' low
So since
I've gotta button up
I believe
I'll hit the road and go
Country road 6-40 state highway 45
Life out of the interstate is very much alive
There's magic in the mountains and music in the valleys down below
And my song ain't through playin' yet so
I believe
I'll hit the road and go

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Johnny Cash (Kingsland, Arkansas, 26 febbraio 1932 – Nashville, Tennessee, 12 settembre 2003) è stato un cantante, musicista e attore statunitense, considerato uno dei più influenti artisti della musica country. Nato in una famiglia contadina del profondo sud, Cash iniziò a cantare nella chiesa locale e ad ascoltare la musica country alla radio. Dopo il servizio militare in Germania, dove imparò a suonare la chitarra, si trasferì a Memphis e iniziò la sua carriera musicale. Il suo stile unico, caratterizzato da un'intensa voce baritonale e testi spesso autobiografici che affrontavano temi come la povertà, la giustizia sociale e la lotta contro le dipendenze, lo rese rapidamente popolare. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "Ring of Fire", "I Walk the Line", "Folsom Prison Blues" e "A Boy Named Sue". Cash ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui June Carter Cash, sua moglie dal 1968 fino alla sua morte. Ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award nel 1997. La sua musica continua ad essere apprezzata da generazioni di fan in tutto il mondo.
