todd snider - the ghost of johnny cash lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
john carter told me he saw her
outside his window, dancing alone one night
he got a feeling she was dancing with his father
when he asked her, she told him he was right

[chorus]
when loretta lynn goes dancing
with the ghost of johnny cash
father time takes forever
and to make it look like less than lightning flash
violins bow into fiddles
two iconic symbols crash
when loretta lynn goes dancing
with the ghost of johnny cash

[verse 2]
they called her “coal miner’s daughter”
“the man in black” was what they called him
she comes from ol’ butcher holler
he can hear that train a-coming, a-coming around the bend

[chorus]
when loretta lynn goes dancing
with the ghost of johnny cash
father time takes forever
and makes it look like less than lightning flash
violins bow into fiddles
two iconic symbols crash
when loretta lynn goes dancing
with the ghost of johnny cash

[bridge]
like a song into the ether
like a soul into the light
john carter, he told me he saw her
she was out there dancing again that very next night

[chorus]
when loretta lynn goes dancing
with the ghost of johnny cash
father time takes forever
and to make it look like less than lightning flash
violins bow into fiddles
two iconic symbols crash
when loretta lynn goes dancing
with the ghost of johnny cash
the ghost of johnny cash
