Johnny Cash Johnny Cash - Wanted Man Lyrics
Written by John R. Cash and Bob Dylan
Recorded 10/9/70
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio.
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in old Cheyenne.
Where ever you might look tonight,
You might see this wanted man.
I might be in Colorado,
Or Georgia by the sea.
Workin' for some man
Who may not know who I might be
And if you ever see me comin'
And if you know who I am,
Don't you breathe it to nobody
'Cause you know I'm on the lamb.
Wanted man by Lucy Watson,
Wanted man by Jeannie Brown
Wanted man by Nellie Johnson,
Wanted man in this next town
Well I've had all that I've wanted,
Of a lot of things I've had
And a lot more than I needed,
Of some things that turned out bad.
I got sidetracked in El Paso,
Stopped to get myself a map.
Went the wrong way into Juarez,
With Juanita on my lap.
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport,
Woke up in Abilene,
Wonderin' why I'm wanted
At some town half way between.
Wanted man in Albuquerque,
Wanted man in Syracuse
Wanted man in Tallahassee,
Wanted man in Baton Rouge
There's somebody set to grab me
Anywhere that I might be
And wherever you might look tonight
You might get a glimpse of me
Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
Wanted man in Mississippi,
Wanted man in ol' Cheyenne
Wherever you might look tonight,
You might see this wanted man.
