Lyrics

Waiting For The Man - Tribute to John R Cash

He wrote the kinda songs, people understand
Nobody ever sang em quite like the man
Generations young and old, loved ole John, he loved em back

His deep rugged voice could take control
Reach way down and touch the soul
Jumped a train, and now he's gone,John's gone, Oh Yeah

Waiting For The Man, Waiting For The man
Gone too soon, change of plan
Legend loves on, deciples still Waiting for the man, Oh Yeah

John fell down a few times in his life
He'd Jump back up, stronger each time
Left this world a better place, for me and you, Thank you John

Waiting For The Man, Waiting For The Man
Young folks pray he'll come home again
Believers know he's already home, Amen, Uh Huh
Now John's smiling down while everybody's waiting on him
Yeah John sends his love, he's up there waiting on you, Amen um hm
