I remember seeing Johnny Cash in concert in Helsinki when I was a child. He began with the familiar "Hello0, I'm Johnny Cash" salute, and began playing "Get the Rhythm". At that moment I knew what is making music with heart and soul.
"Well, I knew that snake wrote 'em really bad, from a worn-out feeling that I've always had. And I knew his rhyming really was so dumb. He was small and bent, and pale and cold. I took one look at this, and felt like mold, and I said, 'My name is Sue! How do you do? Now you're gettin' a one!' Yeah, that's what I told him!" Learn how to rhyme, will ya? If you learned nothing else from Johnny Cash, you should've at least learned that! Face it, when it comes to writing parodies, I'm breezin' down I-78, and you're overheating in the shoulder on Route 22!
Yeah, He Wanted To Cover Our Song "Hurt".
