Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

Lady

Lady your arms're always warm and your bed was always ready when I came

Lady in the middle of the night

You would open up when you'd hear me call your name

And you were always there to see the turning of my key

And your laughing voice to me was like a song

Lady your spirit's sweet and free it's hanging on with me now that I'm gone

Lady you spoke softly and kind and you never had a word to criticize

Lady you know I love you so even more than I ever let you be alive

And day or night I knew that I could bring it all to you

And if I was wrong you'd never put me down

Lady so much I could say but I can't find the way to write it down

Can't find the way to write it down

The days and the miles roll by

In Denver the Rambler and the Fisherman are tired of the road

And ready for whatever the city and the night have to offer

They check into a cheap hotel and go right to the bar downstairs

It's Saturday night and the city's alive

They've been in the bar four hours now and it's nearly closin' time

[Fisherman]

Hey give me another Coors how about you Angie

[Bargirl 1]

I don't like beer

[Fisherman]

Wow man I believe the little lady here wants champagne

[Bargirl 2]

Hey yeah could I have champagne

[Rambler]

Do you think we're a couple of bankers here or somethin'

[Bargirl 1]

I like that

[Fisherman]

Abracadabra abracadabra Coors you're no longer Coors you're champagne

[Rambler]

Man I've had enough of this

[Bargirl 1]

Hey where are you goin'

[Rambler]

Good night

[Bargirl 2]

Hey you're not goin' are you you were buyin' me a drink

[Fisherman]

Hey give me another Coors

[Bargirl 1]

But I don't like beer

[Fisherman]

That ain't beer honey that's Coors

[Rambler]

Well the barman's right

Beer the bar girls too much beer I must be seein' things

I saw you sittin' on a barstool lady and I looked up and you were gone

You didn't like beer either did you lady liked champagne neither did you lady

In Denver Colorado fancy town for a fancy lady like you

Hey maybe she's out there somewhere hey lady hahaha

Hey I ran maybe she ran maybe I did see her downstairs

Maybe she's drownin' her blues like I did

Hey maybe I did see her down there havin' a ball somewhere comin' up to me

Yeah maybe she'll be comin' yeah maybe she'll be comin'
