  • I prefer the "Live at Folsom Prison" version. By a long shot. But, this is cool too.

  • The "Live at Folsom" version is very good, but he was cut off at the end by the applause from the inmates. Although, I am sure the sound of the trapdoor and the snapping sounds would not have been in that version anyway ;)

  • I wonder if there was ever a more "disturbing" end to a song than this one. Mr Cash was really a badass if he wanted to be :)

  • @tragicallyelite this album has the best versions of his songs!

  • @jdubbsmonkeynutts Pardon me if I gave you that impression.

    I only recently realised that I dislike Johnny Cash songs.

  • Awesome!!

  • @randal39 I think I still have my copy. Great album.

  • happy birthday joe bean :)

  • And one more thing: You seem to be rather free eh? To even make a fuss of a simple comment that I made. Maybe you should I don't know, get something worthwhile to do?

    I am being very understanding of your haste to make my comment into such a big issue. I can understand. Everyone has it sometimes when you just have too much time on your hands.

  • How does the singer know...? Its a song! He knows because he wrote the lyrics! This isn't a true events opinion work, its from Johnny Cash's "Murder" album, filled with songs themed accordingly in the set "Love - God - Murder".

    Your position is absurd, the facts of the story are fanciful. How can you be so naive as to believe this is a narrative of actual events to which the singer had special insight or was privy to additional facts?

  • but this shooting wasn't his.

    There is sb one else that goes scot-free.

    How does the singer know that he actually did the killing then?

    He should have been called on trial for that particular killing at the age of ten then.

  • trap door dropping and his neck snapping.

  • Are you kidding? Did you hear the words? The song is about a man who had killed countless people... He gets what's coming to him, and his alibi for the murder he was convicted for was that he was robbing a train and its passengers! Express lane this sonofabitch! The song is a bit of irony, its a tragic comedy, not a sad song. Civil society need not cry for the bad man.
