Cash wrote only three of the fifteen tracks on this album, and "The Man Comes Around" is the only one that Cash wrote for the album. He partially sings and partially speaks the words, which contain numerous Biblical references, predominantly from the Book of Revelation. The song never names "the Man" who will come around, though an obvious inference would be the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. According to the song, when the Man comes around, there will be judgment for some and salvation for others. A series of images depict the horror and confusion of that judgment day.

  • JOHNNY SAID " Til armaggedon, NO SHALAM, NO SHALOM" SHALAM IN HEBREW MEANS TO BE COMPLETE, OR SOUNDMINED... SHALOM IN HEBREW MEANS PEACE. SO JOHNNY IS SUBLIMINALLY SAYING... UNTIL OUR UTTER DESTRUCTION AND END WE WILL NEVER BE COMPLETE AND WE WILL NEVER BE IN PEACE....

  • What does this have to do with Johnny Cash.No , I don't have a house and I don't have a car.I am in a wheelchair , you fxxxing muslim prick.My legs were shot off by a land mine in Angola while we were fighting there .Thank GOD, I am still alive and that was also the reason that I first comment on this song by Johnny Cash,because it reminds me of that day "WHEN THE MAN COMES AROUND" .That day it was to save me and not to judge me.So what is your story for being so miserable .??

  • @Apachedropout99 I suppose your house is on wheels and your car is on bricks.

  • Stuff you, I am on pension and if I like Johnny Cash ,Steve Earle , Slipknot ,Linkin Park , Elvis,The Beatles & Metal , and it got nothing to do with you.I survived the 60's and Johnny Cash had many hits through the years.So, stop being such a baby and let other people enjoy what they like without you hammering in your poeslike comments every time somebody post a reply to say they love the song and where they heard it first.

  • F.O. you muslim poes.What does "denigrate" means anyway.Get a a life ,go back to school and learn to spell and have respect for other people in public places.Your mother never loved you, you piece of worthless muslem kak.Does your mother know what you are doing on the internet?Buy a Johnny Cash album relax and listen to the words of each song - you might learn something and stop being so pathetic to post your silly stupid comments on everybody's replies.

  • @Apachedropout99 Grow up and learn to spell.

  • Hey man, read my comments below - I said nothing negative about anything.Open your eyes.I don't know you but you sound in the few words you spitted at me like a fucking muslem or hindu poes.By the way, while at it, who made your mother and father ?T

    All you did in your words above was to show that you can't spell and how a lost soul you are.

  • @Apachedropout99 my makers were my mother and father not the god of abraham, if your faith is so strong then you have no need to denigrate anybody else. grow up.

  • Thanks for the info - I think I saw the movie but the song slipped passed me then.I will make a plan the check the movie again .When The MAN Comes Around - one of the coolest song titles I must say.Still people comment on the song.Does anybody know a good story why Johnny Cash wrote this song, maybe his biography shed some light on this, then I must find that book and read it,I guess.

  • @Apachedropout99 and it was in the opening credits for George Romero's "Dawn of the Dead"

  • The movie The Hunted ( Tommy Lee Jones) ended with this song and I ripped it from there.Thanks for the lyrics and NeroTheElder who posted this.The video is solid.Well done.I appreciate it.Yes, one thing is for sure,JESUS CHRIST will come one day again - this time it will be judgement day.Be ready to meet your MAKER.!!!!
