Johnny Cash/Bridge Over Troubled Water...Red Cross Appeal on
Edited on Fri Sep-02-05 09:27 PM by MrsGrumpy
T.V.

.....:cry: It made me go get the CD and load it up. That song, and his voice is perfect.

When you’re weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I’m on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can’t be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you’re down and out,
When you’re on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I’ll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

I have quite a few of his CDs and maybe I have that.

4. It is still so hard to watch
The video for "Hurt". I have some of his Sun albums too. Johnny was my second hero when I was a little kid, the first being Elvis.

3. I know! I was bawling the other day at that myself.
Someday a really good filmmaker ought to make a movie based on Johnny's life.
It's such an amazing American story.
