Johnny Cash - Sing It Pretty, Sue lyrics
[Johnny Cash - Sing It Pretty, Sue lyrics]
So you gave up all between
Us for a glamorous career
And with all your talent you should be
The big star of the year
Then you'll be public property so I
Release my claim to you
Go on and give them all you've
Got sing it pretty Sue
I can't take just part of you
And give the world a half
So smile for all the papers
And give them autographs
Go on to all the cities so
Your public can see you
But I'll watch on television so
Sing it pretty Sue
I hope you'll soon be on the
Top of every hit parade
I'll try to be excited about
The progress that you've made
I'll collect your pictures like
Any fan would do
And I'll buy all your records
So sing it pretty Sue
But I won't ever tell a soul
That we have ever met
I'll just be one of millions who'll
Give the praise you get
And maybe every year or so I'll
Drop a card to you
To tell you I'm still listening
So sing it pretty Sue
Us for a glamorous career
And with all your talent you should be
The big star of the year
Then you'll be public property so I
Release my claim to you
Go on and give them all you've
Got sing it pretty Sue
I can't take just part of you
And give the world a half
So smile for all the papers
And give them autographs
Go on to all the cities so
Your public can see you
But I'll watch on television so
Sing it pretty Sue
I hope you'll soon be on the
Top of every hit parade
I'll try to be excited about
The progress that you've made
I'll collect your pictures like
Any fan would do
And I'll buy all your records
So sing it pretty Sue
But I won't ever tell a soul
That we have ever met
I'll just be one of millions who'll
Give the praise you get
And maybe every year or so I'll
Drop a card to you
To tell you I'm still listening
So sing it pretty Sue
