Johnny Cash - The Chicken In Black
A D E A E
A
For two long years my head hurt bad
D
So the doctor checked me and he shook his head
E A E
He said I’m sorry to tell you put your body’s out lived your brain
A
He said I know this doctor in New York son
D
And he’ll fix you right up with a brand new one
E A E
So the head doctor met me when I stepped down off the train.
A
He said we had this bank robber killed last night
D
His body’s shot but his brain’s alright
E A E
I’ll give you a transplant boy and you’ll be okay.
A
I got my new brain in and I was feelin’ great
D
I went right back to Nashville with no head ache
E A
But somethin’ strange happened when I walked in the bank one day.
Chorus:
D
I said stick ‘em up everybody I’m robbin’ this place
A
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
D E
Don’t nobody move and don’t nobody reach for that door
A
A lady said why you’re Johnny Cash
D
I said no ma’am, I’m The Manhatton Flash
E A
And I am the best bank robber, in New York.
A
Now the other night Roy Acuff called me
D
He said John I’d like you to do the Orpy
E A E
So I went out on the stage, but I couldn’t sing
A
I got into half a verse of I Walk The Line
D
And somethin’ snapped in this head of mine
E A
I yelled stick ‘em up, give me your money your watches and your rings.
Bb
Well I called New York and talked to that brain quack
Db
I said doc I got to have my old brain back
F Bb F
He said I’m sorry there Mr. Cash but I can’t do that.
Bb
He said I put your brain in a chicken last Monday
Db
He’s singin’ your songs and makin’ lots of money
F Bb F
And I got him signed to a ten year recordin’ contract.
Bb
Now friends if you see me walkin’ down the street
Db
Remember what you see ain’t necessarly me
F Bb
And if I try to hold you up, don’t pay me no mind.
Bb
But when you got ten bucks that you can blow
Db
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken Show
F Bb
He’s doin’ fairs and concert dates all up and down the line.
Chorus2:
Db
I said stick ‘em up everybody I’m robbin’ this place
Bb
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
Db F
Don’t nobody move and don’t nobody reach for that door
Bb
A lady said why you’re Johnny Cash
Db
I said no ma’am, I’m The Manhattan Flash
F Bb F
And I am the best bank robber, in New York.
Well it don’t pay any income tax
You don’t pay tax on money you steal
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken Show
Chicken In Black.
