Johnny Cash Lyrics

I tried to warn you
I should have known by now
I tried to warn you
I should have known

Dark marks in your skin are making me sick
And I just can't fucking believe it
And I still can't fucking believe you

I got no money
I got no pills, honey
I hit the bottle
Baby, can't you see? (I fucking failed)

I got no money (No)
I ain't got no pills, honey (No pills)
I hit the bottle
Baby, can't you see? (I fucking failed)

Isn't it funny how everything falls apart?

Dark marks in your skin are making me sick
And I just can't believe it
And I still just can't believe it

I tried to warn you
I should have known by now
I tried to warn you
I should have known

I got no money
I got no pills, honey
I hit the bottle
Baby, can't you see? (I fucking failed)

I got no money
I got no pills, honey
I hit the bottle
Baby, can't you see? (I fucking failed)

I got no money (No)
I ain't got no pills, honey (No pills)
I hit the bottle
Baby, can't you see? (I fucking failed)

Can't you see I've fucking failed?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
