Johnny Cash - Michigan City Howdy Do lyrics

[Johnny Cash - Michigan City Howdy Do lyrics]

Well Johnson van dyke Grimsby
Was paroled in '89
He never walked on a carpet
Never tasted dinner wine
His old eyes were slowly fading as
He walked out of the gate
And he breathed the first free
Air he'd breathed since 19-0-8
Howdy do Michigan city you're
Sure pretty sight
But I know there's bigger cities
And more exciting nights
But I think your girls are pretty
And I love your children too
Michigan city Indiana howdy do Michigan
City Indiana howdy do
Michigan city Indiana howdy do
Filled with the joy of freedom he
Didn't know that he was old
Because time don't really matter when
It's bubbling in your soul
Well I don't think he was bitter
Because he sure had a smile
And down the streets of Michigan city
He walked his first free miles
Howdy do Michigan city
