Johnny’s Cash

[Intro]
Let me tell y'all a little story

[Verse 1]
Johnny's mama never told him who his papa was
All she said was he's long gone, now it's just the two of us
One day, the telephone rang around about supper time
It was his daddy's lawyer on the other line

[Verse 2]
Johnny's daddy was a wealthy Tulsa millionaire
When he died, he left behind everything to just one heir
Airplanes and limousines, it all happened so fast
Turnin' Daddy's money into Johnny's cash

[Chorus]
From rags to riches, from an old Ford to a Coupe de Ville
From a trailer park in Georgia to a house up in the hills
Livin' like he did, Lord, he never knew what he didn't have
Now that Daddy's money was Johnny's cash

[Verse 3]
Now Johnny can't believe all the new friends he has
Since he stopped bummin' beers and started pickin' up the tab
They'll sing a song and tag along as long as it will last
'Cause it ain't their money, it's Johnny's cash

[Chorus]
From rags to riches, from an old Ford to a Coupe de Ville
From a trailer park in Georgia to a house up in the hills
Livin' like he did, Lord, he never knew what he didn't have
Now that Daddy's money was Johnny's cash

[Bridge]
Yeah, he said, "I could get used to this"
When his redhead cover girlfriend gave him a kiss

[Chorus]
Oh, livin' like he did, Lord, he never knew what he didn't have
Now that Daddy's money
I said Daddy's money
Yeah, Daddy's money is Johnny's cash
Oh, it's all Johnny's cash

[Outro]
Don't spend it all in one place, boy
