Started out in Tennessee in 1944
When the doctor hollered it's a girl my father hit the floor
Then he hit the bottle and he signed his name and he drove off in the Nash
And when that sun came up again he'd named me Johnny Cash

So at twenty-two I left my home to Nashville I did go
To try to land me a little job had to earn myself some dough
I was workin' in a diner in a hair-net servin' hash
And on my little apron was embroidered Johnny Cash

I could a had my pick of men if I'd been named Lucille
But when they saw my uniform they just laughed and ate their meal
So I just drink my coffee black in back behind the trash
And curse that lousy drunkard who had named me Johnny Cash

Then I walked the streets of Nashville I was feelin' low and lost
Thought I'd go and change my name no matter what it cost
I stood in line behind a man who turned and in a flash
He said my name is Sue and I said great I'm Johnny Cash

Now me and Sue is married with a little boy and girl
The boy was christened Jessica and the girl was christened Earl
And when my Sue comes home from work it's up the stairs we dash
Cause I love to hear my little Susie say I love you Johnny Cash
