[Verse 1]
Down the street the dogs are barking
And the day is getting dark
As the night comes in falling
The dogs will lose their bark
And the silent night will shatter
From the sounds inside my mind

[Chorus]
For I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind

[Verse 2]
From the crossroads of my doorstep
My eyes they start to fade
As I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid
And I gaze back to the street
The sidewalk and the sign

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
It's a restless hungry feeling
That don't mean no one no good
When everything I'm saying
You can say it just as good
You're right from your side
I'm right from mine

[Chorus]

Johnny Cash (26 February 1932 – 12 September 2003) was an iconic singer and songwriter who primarily operated in the genre of country music, but was an integral figure in the popularization of rock and roll. One of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, he was inducted into the country, rock and roll and gospel Music Hall of Fame.

Known for his somber and humble stage demeanor, he almost always started his concerts with a simple “Hello, I’m Johnny Cash.”

Much of his catalog focuses on the human condition, sorrow, oppression and the hope of redemption. And his catalog is huge, rivaling that of Hank Williams Sr., David Bowie and Prince. Starting in the 50s and ending just before his death in 2003, his deep baritone voice is instantly recognized by music lovers the world over.
