Rest in Peace Johnny

words and music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)

VERSE 1

Once there was a man named Johnny
Cash was his last name
He sang at the Grand Ole Opry
Until they banned him from the stage
Sleep tight Johnny, rest in peace Johnny

VERSE 2

But soon the Grand Ole Opry
Brought Johnny back on stage
Where he walked the line in his own style
The class act man in black
Sleep tight Johnny, rest in peace Johnny

CHORUS

On September 12th 2003 Country music lost a legend
Sleep tight Johnny, rest in peace Johnny

VERSE 3

The man in black was one in a million
With a talent oh so rare
There will never be another
Who will match his Ring of fire
Sleep tight Johnny, rest in peace Johnny

REPEAT CHORUS
