  • thumbs up if listening to this song you hung your head

  • Whoever disliked this went through i ring of fire after getting shot...

  • What a beautiful man. What a talent.  God bless you, man in black.

  • the dislike bar is like lady gagas penis its small but shouldnt be there :/

  • WHY IS THERE A DISLIKE BUTTON???

  • the SHIELD!

  • he should have framed jeb for that incident

  • The one thing you don't want as a singer is Johnny Cash to cover it you'll be outta business real fast.

  • ironic how the uploaders names is souljaboi7772 lol... but who has more soul than johnny cash fan hahah good on ya mang!!

  • lyrics hit deep

  • Awesome! Springsteen also did a good cover of this with a particularly nice solo

  • that is the only time i have EVER in my life heard "I wish I was dead" with acceptance

  • gold johnny mate

  • this is awesome and not in the american term sense... Johnny Cash - truely outstanding!!!

  • the shield

  • MASTERPIECE!!!

  • sorry for what my generation has done to music

  • Me and my dad still always listen to Johnny, but especially when he first introduced me to his music, I was about 6 years old and we would listen to him all the time, I would always want him to put on some Cash tapes while driving home from school or whenever we were in the car. But once Johnny Cash passed on, well, we both hung our heads :( Miss ya Cash, you'll never be forgotten buddy.

  • Johnny is god

  • my 6 year old son loves Johnny Cash, he then asked next time he'll tour.. very unfortunate, Cash for life.

  • I got a nice pair of THX speakers with some good base and its songs like this that make me glad I purchased them, to really feel the full affect of johnny cash!

  • i want this song played at my funeral

  • sting version better 

  • i know johnny only wrote maybe a third of his tunes that doesnt matter one fukin bit...this man breathes life and death into a song like no other...its as if each word could be his last...and hearing his dying breath and vocals on his final recordings brings tears to my eyes.....this man lost a part of his soul when his loving wife died..may they rest in the cosmic sea of dreams forever.on a lighter note check johnnys song cup of coffee and boa constricter....john henry hammer...peace.

  • @bluefukingreene That is all true...

  • @yenyere121 he is the man...cheers to you.

  • This has always been one of my fav Sting songs -- great job by Johhny!

  • what is johnny cash's thing with killing people in songs???

  • @zvczcmmq2 hes a gangster

  • @ps3itzbill wth?? random

  • RIP johnny cash :(

  • Sting is the original, don't get me wrong, but if an artist is gonna remake a song then he's gonna do it a little different. Cash just made it his own

  • meh, i dont care who wrote it, and im not interested in hearing the original sorry xD

  • I know i could be wrong, but i think this song is about responsibility. in the end old Johnny owned up to what he did. I doubt its about guns in any form or fashion.

  • 24 people are still hanging there head

  • people say rap is lyrical. listen to this.

  • Everybody, stop any and all debates or arguments on here, or any Johnny Cash song. I swear, the Man in Black would be turning in his grave if he saw people having petty squabbles like this with his music playing.

  • @XxManoDeMuertexX  This isn't his song, Sting wrote it.

  • Moral of the Story?

  • my fav song from cash

  • people who loves having a gun in each room of their house oughta stick one up their ass and pull the trigger until it goes click

  • @VIDARMATHISEN WTF is wrong with having guns ? Are you just mad because you don't have any.

  • @VIDARMATHISEN Likewise to you. guns arent the problem, its idiots like you. ill keep my guns wherever i want.

  • @patsmithj well said mate

  • One of my favorite songs.

  • going trough a hard time one of my closest friends dies just a couple days from a long a long battle whit Cystic fibrosis this is very much the feeling that im going trough R.I,P love you

  • @MrStephenm505 Sorry for your loss.

  • @GoLDeNxRiFLe thank you :')

  • The greatest American troubadour...maybe only Woody Guthrie approaches him in the magnitude of his work. He is thoroughly American, steeped in it, made of it. He never tried to be anything other than what he was. When artists understand that and only when they do, can they really start to make something that is honest and that matters.

  • @blimao86 -the fact that you know Guthrie gives me a bit of peace, hope.

  • You know its a good song when its over and you were like "Wow, that was a short song." Then you look and it's almost 4 minutes long.

  • Has anyone heard the original by Sting? It's almost comical how superior in every single way Johnny's cover version is than the original. If u heard this without knowing its a cover you'd bet your life savings it was either written by or for Johnny.

  • @GratefulVince same thing goes for Hurt

  • @GratefulVince and that i did.. Rip Man in black;)

  • @GratefulVince Johnny Cash didn't cover songs, he took them and made them his own, and never once did the original artist complain. The man is a legend.

  • @GratefulVince listen to further on up the Road, its the same thing, the original I think is by ted nugent, but im really sure im wrong.

  • @GratefulVince I think because Sting is English and went to a nice Grammar School and had a job as a bus conductor it makes it hard to believe that he shot a man dead riding across the plains, Mr Cash may well have just done that.

  • @GratefulVince so true!! though i prefer Sting's use of Stream rather than Sheen, but apparently it was a misprint in the lyrics Johnny was using :p

  • @GratefulVince totally agree, but trying watching Sting Live in Berlin-- the accompaniments really give it some "umph."  But still, Johnny does still own Sting.

  • Nothing like posting your feelings for the world to see, on the comments of a music video.

  • thank god the horsey was okay

  • 23 people are homos.

  • @BobSwagger65

    why did you have to go for homos, johnny cash would disapprove

    you should have said

    those 23 people didn't get God's Mercy when they shot a Lone Rider

  • @BobSwagger65 Believe it or not but I got a big gay Cherokee Native American friend that like johnny cash...hope fully not in the gay kind of way though lmfao.

  • @BobSwagger65 Dude, come on. That isn't even funny.

  • @ThunderRups Never said it was supposed to be.

  • "I felt the power, of death over life. I orphaned his children; i widowed his wife"

    I have to go cry now.

  • having an discussion on youtube is the same as the paralympics you can join it but in the end your stil a retard

  • @MrKutkop2 people in the paralympics are 'retards'? what an ignorant thing to say

  • @MrKutkop2

    You mean: Even if you win, you're still a retard.

  • his voice is like the voice of Daan! I love that ;)

  • until youve murdered a man then u will never know

  • That feeling when you find that one Johnny Cash song you couldn't remember. Smash replay!!!

  • the peoples rights to own guns must stop, you can say that its not the gun but the crazy person who uses it, well thats not good enough. be civilized melt down all guns !! now i will probably get shot soon, fuck it !

  • @VIDARMATHISEN Shut up, pussy.

  • @SteveDude64 -< how sivilised you are

  • @VIDARMATHISEN How illiterate you are.

  • @SteveDude64 well english is not my first language whats your excuse ? bullets should be at least 5000 $ each, then no more school massacres ! cant see why any american would need guns unless he is a soldier

  • @VIDARMATHISEN Maybe to protect themselves? The people that use guns illegally aren't going to stop using them illegally if we take the 2nd amendment, so law abiding people wouldn't even be able to protect themselves from criminals.

  • @SteveDude64 yeah protect yourself from ALL THE MILLIONS of gun owners out there ! dont you see that you have a giant of a problem there ?? you need the same regulation as in my country. and so i stole from chris rock so fucking what, you are steeling the natural resources from other countries all over the world

  • @VIDARMATHISEN : Define natural

  • @VIDARMATHISEN way to steal that from Chris Rock. If you outlaw guns only outlaws will have guns. The government will never take my guns from me. I will defend my family from CRIMINALS.

  • @VIDARMATHISEN

    FYI : I'm not an American, I'm a European, like yourself.

    I for one would like to see the same rights in Europe.

    But we'll talk again, when you get robbed in your own home, with your wife and kids in their beds scared shitless.And you will try to be Mighty Mouse, calling the law and then wait until they feel like coming along.In the meanwhile you will be there...unable to protect everything you love.Then we'll talk, if that happens to you and if you are lucky enough to survive

  • @foretje88 Depends where you live. I live in France and I have a hunting licence and a gun licence, as well as a rifle and a shotgun, which is more than enough to protect yourself.

  • @DrHooty911 I'm from Belgium.I have both licenses myself.And in terms of home defence they are more then sufficient.I'm not asking to have a AR in my house.Just to keep my right and priviledge(you know aswell that obtaining any license in our countries isn't made up for fun) I just dislike the black and white statements made by people in the liking of Vidar.

  • @VIDARMATHISEN School Massacres wouldn't happen if people would raise their kids with decency, if a kid never got bullied, he'd never pick up a gun, he'd never point it at another and he'd never shoot it. It doesn't matter if we destroy all guns in the world, and no one has one, a knife cna kill just as many as a pistol, so can a nail, so can a screwdriver, the only thing that will be accomplished from elimenating guns is increasing crime 10 fold as all guns will be illegal and untracable.

  • @Tatsue295 So before you go preaching about what we should do with our weapons, think, is there any reason we shouldn't melt your steakknife? or your Fork? or your tool box? And belloow you decide to barate someone about their civility? For all you know the simple act of calling a person or implying that they are uncivilized could drive them over. We have a right to defend ourselves, we also can have any means to do it, it is up to the owner to control it.

  • @VIDARMATHISEN I bet you wont be saying that when a 10 foot tall bear is about to rape you.

  • @666PlagueBlack -< simple people ! go eat a burger

  • @VIDARMATHISEN when government and obama melt guns they will make sure that hardened criminals will get them why'll law abiding citizens will live in fear. Don't forget the black market where criminals get there guns.

  • I was listening to this,but fuak then I took an arrow to the knee!

  • @HawtR0D4 skyrim really....

  • This song brings a tear to my eye . knowing it was one of the few songs of his Last that he did :'(

  • I can sing this song without looking at the lyrics.

  • 22 people couldn't handle the power of music...

  • @CLutChOptics Yep, Me ^_^

  • i wish i was a cowboy!

  • Johnny your still in all of our hearts and you will never die.

  • 21 people should go cross a plain.

  • every song from johnny will be played at my gravesite as everyone has some fuckin fun!!!!!shit, PARTY AT SIXFLAGS when i die i dont want a single soul to mourne for my death,they better have some fuckin fun!!!!!!!

  • This tells a story that could have been lived by many of us.

  • This song has a meaning. This meaning is that when you treat someone bad or kill someone or do anything that could hurt mentally or phisically someone you're hunging your head...

  • @MrBolyo1 That makes no sense at all.

  • I don't give a shit who dislikes or likes I came here to listen to Johnny Cash.

  • a cash prize for the first person to tell me who wrote this track!

  • i could spend the rest of my life listenting to Johnny Cash and die a happy man

  • Becoming a fan with each video. Never really followed Johnny Cash until I watched an episode of Ghost Adventures where they investigated his Jamaican home.

  • This is an amazing singer.

    How could you find such poor-quality pix? You most definitely deserve an award.

  • thumbs down if you think the generic thumbs up comments should forever be banished to the deepest pits of oblivion. We should really thumb those comments down as often as possible

  • good to see that souljaboy has a good taste in music..

  • @itank16 Lol I love that movie I just had to look this up

  • lol uploaded by souljaboi7772

  • heck ya sisstas keep the good work

  • There is nothing better than listening to Johnny Cash at night with alcohol and smokes.

  • @ak47santic Yep... you smoking makes you sooooo cool.

  • @Delinquent619 Who the fuck smokes to make themselves look cool? Fuckin twit

  • @Delinquent619 More kids should smoke these days, it's so fucking cool.

  • @Delinquent619 its not done to make you look cool, thats a HUGE stereotype, its done because its addictive, i choose not to smoke around people, if i wanted to 'look' cool, why would i only do it in private? im ashamed, thats why.

  • @ak47santic doing it right now, christmas joy my ass

  • @ak47santic Fuck such a true statement.

  • @ak47santic alcohol is for loosers, and you should not put tobacco in your weed... its bad for your health ;)

  • @shikilaki You should be able to use anything.

    Power is with us.

  • Great song...shit upload. Too loud, poor quality photos.

  • @garethac81 turn it down fool

  • Early one morning With time to kill I see the gallows Up on a hill And out in the distance A trick of the brain I see a lone rider Crossing the plain And he'd come to fetch me To see what they'd done And we'd ride together To kingdom come I prayed for god's mercy For soon I'd be dead I hung my head I hung my head I hung my head I hung my head ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ i dont understand that part of the song... would somone be kind enough to tell me.... and tell me what gallows are
  • @CountryBoy9872 Gallows are what used to hold Nooses. In the song he was sentenced to death by hanging.

  • @SDubDaBulldogg i know that but what is the lone rider at the end?

    

  • @CountryBoy9872 Pretty sure it was the Lone Rider he killed....

  • @CountryBoy9872 or death. i used to be a grim reaper ......but then i took an arrow to the knee

  • @CountryBoy9872 gallows are what they use to hang people

  • time will always be the same

  • I am happy everyone loves this version of the song as it is yet another song Cash put his heart and soul into the performance BUT he didn't write it. It's a cover. Sting wrote this song.

  • I set off running to wake from the dream,

    and then I took an arrow in the knee.

  • one Johnny cash's masterpieces

  • @CatEdits its very good but its a cover dont know if you knew that

  • Johnny Cash's God's Gonna Cut You Down is next for me. :) Maybe after that it'll be.....I don't know.....too many greats to choose from!

  • Johnny Cash, yet another great songwriter whom I miss. :(

  • like this if hung my head is your favorite johnny cash song

  • @tjk00 i would like this but i think i like hurt a little more.. lol .. ah fuck it you like johnny cash thats worth a billion likes in my book

  • obviously 21 people never hung their head after shooting someone!

  • Was this a true song? Sounds like it could be. Either way, JC's music has a way of stirring the soul & conscience.

  • @usaruss Moron, its a Blink182 cover, and yes this its true, it happened to Tom Delonge several times

  • @papashangofan Moron, it's a Sting cover.

  • @papashangofan obvious troll is obvious.. nonetheless, 10/10
