I love this song. It is one of the best on the American V disc. His voice is so haunting.
When you read the lyrics, it sounds like the prisoner was set free after being imprisoned wrongfully, but when you hear Cash singing it, it sounds like he was executed and was free in that sense.
It is a true masterpiece, in every sense of the word. Cash's final words were some of his strongest.
