Cash it On In

My newest favorite song ever, this woman can sing:

Oh there’s something ’bout a man in black,
Makes me want to buy a cadillac,
Throw the top back,
And roll down to Jackson town,
I wanna be there on the stage with you,
You and I could be the next rage to,
Hear the crowd roar,
Make ‘em one more,
I’ll kick the footlights out,

I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin’ with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
‘Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you’re gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,

I wanna hold you baby right or wrong,
Build a world around a country song,
Pray a sweet prayer,
Follow you there,
Down in history,

I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin’ with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
‘Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you’re gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,

Like Johnny and June,
More than life itself,
No-one else,
This here is promise,
They don’t make love like that anymore,
Is that too much to be askin’ for,

I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin’ with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
‘Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you’re gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,

Like Johnny and June,
And when we’re gone,
There’ll be no tears to cry,
Only memories of our lives,
They’ll remember, remember,
A love like that.

Heidi Newfield - “Johnny And June”

    Good choice, Bug. The lyrics are a great play on words.
    Love,
    mom

    I love that song too! Her voice is incredible… which reminds me I want to look her up and see if she looks how I picture she looks.

    Hey Bug, dunno if you’ll remember me but I was a big fan of yours a few years ago.

    Haven’t been around the “the blog scene” for a while; life has taken a few quite nasty turns.

    I wanted to come and wish you a very happy birthday. My calender shows that today is the day. I hope it’s accurate.

    I was reading a couple of the posts; I am so very sorry to hear about your brother. I lost a sister a few years ago. I don’t really have any clever or useful words for you, but I am sorry.

    I’m also sorry that you are currently alone. Is the Hotness in the service or a contractor?

    Anyway, I hope I’ve got the date right, and I hope you have a great birthday, all other life events aside. At the least, I hope it isn’t a bad birthday!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :) :) :)
