Johnny Cash - A Boy Named Sue

[@anakina1]

He never takes a break, there is no bridge, solo, or any real pause. He sings all the way through. You look back and realize he was cool. not really a title everyone can have, but he was. RIP Johnny. Merry Christmas everyone.

[@rhoula]

Merry Christmas to you too my friend.

[@CYOTI01]

im a little early, but merry christmas

[@pompim7384]

My idol!

[@geraldstamour1312]

Johnny Cash RULES, period!

[@WeaponX831]

this is a classic and it will never get old.

[@todhold2673]

This is the first time i've listened to this song in full... being black and all. I gotta say, the story telling writing is 10/10.

[@aspomwell]

Lyrics were written by Shel Silverstien, awesome poet.

[@mynameisaichlinn]

+Bob Dole I don't understand... Why is being black relevant?

[@maplesohrab4960]

+mynameisaichlinn Because mostly white people listen to this song . Fact.

[@mynameisaichlinn]

Maple Sohrab Ohhh, okay

[@ZelphrinsGaming]

+aspomwell Same person who wrote every 90's kids favorite books ;)

[@jaywalker5632]

One of the greatest songs ever written!

[@om-qg7ju]

Definitely, this is the best version

[@rickraber1249]

And definitely one of the funniest!

[@bfgmech3c]

Written by Shel Silverstein

[@EricandDish]

One of the most brillant songs of the late-60s.

[@scottybell7661]

First heard this in 1959. My dad was a long haul trucker and bought this record out of a jukebox in a truck stop

[@queenkizkurt]

This song always makes me laugh! So brilliant!! Johnny cash is great at story telling

[@rickraber1249]

You like "One Piece At A Time"?

❤. Rest In Peace 🕊️🕊️ Johnny Cash ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Zarah.nana1948]

My own parents seemed rarely interested in music, when I was younger, other than classical, but somehow a Johnny Cash album made it's way into our house when I was as a kid, and this one has always been a massive favourite of mine, when I sometimes hear it on the radio, and I don't know why?

[@menchs_l7664]

When I first heard this song... I thought it’s all fun and jokes in the lyrics but as I grew older I realized there’s too much pain in the message of the song put into the words of a badass.

[@dixieingalls6077]

So funny Johnny had a great sense of humor!

[@jobox060]

They aren't his lyrics, Shel Silverstein wrote it.

[@limpbuisness7122]

Leilani Rodriguez it looks like he’s about to laugh his ass of through the song, so its probably something he’d come up with himself humour whise

[@Cissablack708]

he was great

[@atfourothirtythree]

@@jobox060 great song writer.

[@bigmind2004]

Legends Never Died.

[@theschmidtjulian]

[@KkimShi]

A great story teller....And thats what good country music is about...

[@kevinwebb2480]

This has the best sound of this track. a damn good song.

[@guyaneseheat6458]

Sue is cool, I like/love Sue's story, Sue is the legendary Johnny Cash, God bless him AMEEN...

[@DrakeBellsgirl4ever]

Such an awesome song! Me and my brother love Johnny Cash

[@jamesvignali6074]

Top ten songs of all time.

[@mikaelarule]

My father named me. He was the biggest JC fan.. I am The Girl named Mikey ♥️ bittersweet knowing he knew he wouldn’t be there for me, but gave me a tool to survive without him. I’ll always love you more than you know.

[@rhondabaroli2683]

I loved this tune

[@brendawatkins5751]

LOVE U JOHNNY ❣️ MISS YOU 😘 VERY MUCH,A LEGEND LIKE YOU ARE IS NEVER FORGOTTEN ❣️❣️.

[@YouStartedForaReason]

Bless you "man in black"...you still make me chuckle. 🎸

[@cmnelson2923]

Guys (and Girls!), REALLY??! "Man in Black" was because he said he'd never where bright colors again until all of the MIAs & POWs were home from Vietnam! And, of course, all the soldiers, too. Sad note - he never did wear any other color to the day he died...

[@Cissablack708]

he was great

[@Yesica1993]

This is priceless, thank you! The man could tell a story like no one else. And he is absolutely gorgeous here. Truly one of a kind.

[@Jefff72]

RIP we miss you Johnny!

[@maryannemiller450]

Happy Birthday in Heaven today Johnny. We sure do miss you. 2/27/2020

[@GeorgeVreelandHill]

Thank you, Johnny Cash. You will always be the best.

[@DeezeR734]

Played this friday at my grandads funeral. Amazing song for an amazing man.

[@pdholland]

Was he named Sue?

[@robr.]

That is when COUNTRY music WAS COUNTRY...good stuff a classic !

[@everhad1ofthosedayz]

this kinda music was never mine but this man is a god. love his music.

[@cbgflygirl]

One of my favorite Johnny Cash songs!

[@dahooliii]

I remember this song. It was a Top 20 Hit in the UK in 1969.

[@Yesica1993]

It's never too late, not really! He's got a zillion albums, and some wonderful videos here on YT as well. I regret that I didn't follow him as closely as I should have, and I'd give anything if I had seen him perform live. But his music will live on forever.

[@JANNAMINISTRY]

My Dad J.D. Loved this song. This song brings back a lot of memories. OMG. Call me anything but SUE when my DAD came home from WELDING, PLEASE!

[@garylyons6859]

Thank god he didn't actually name his boy sue lol. My favourite johnny cash song is an inspirational one about a father who wanted his son to grow up tough and stand up for himself in a cruel world. RIP johnny you are a legend.

[@UchihaOokami2596]

Feel this was a song Johnny Cash just loved to play.

[@det3134]

If I have a son, I'll name him Bill or George anything but Ndamaukong Suh

[@littlefarm34]

His cousin was named Billy...I always wondered if Bill was for him

[@SquireHoggOfficial]

bahahaha!!!

[@robinrocha2091]

I named my fish George...

[@jrcarchive1932]

Ndamaukong Suh?

[@ArdyBorrelli]

Ya gotta love this video . It's before it's time, without doubt, one of the best early "video" clips I've ever seen.

[@yolandakuieekuiee7260]

One of the greatest country singers, Love to the Navajo brother! RIP

[@camillaroseg]

[@starshinesnider5809]

[@gerritverbruggenverbruggen8719]

Zomer van 1969 vakantie op de camping van Oom Tom in Groote Keeten Noord Holland. Sue zat in de jukebox van de kantine. Veel gedraaid en veel kwartjes in de jukebox gedaan. Hoorde van zijn kleinzoon, die daar woont, dat zijn Opa Tom 86 jaar was geworden.

[@JohannaNazareen1225]

This song allways makes me laugh and smile. And all the people that I sing it to. I heard there was a man who realy was named Sue after his mother who died at child birth. But who the hell censores Johnny Cash?

[@zctivo7442]

Happy Birthday, Legend among all legends

[@tommyjosephmarion7907]

hahaha, awe good old Johnny Cash. Great Guy xD RIP Brother

[@ernestoburguillos6272]

Amazing

[@benvencen]

@WeaponX831 your right it will never get old it is a very awesome song :P

[@123samskate]

Who the flip thought it would be a good idea to censor this song!

[@jamesduncan6309]

Tv censors this is from a network show "This is Tom Jones" episode 24 or season 2 episode 9 it actually aired in 1969 though not 70 like in the description.

[@123samskate]

Well then. That makes total sense.

[@markdamen730]

+Cole Lamers but the u.s.a 50 years ago is what we want

[@allenbooth7033]

+Greg Galvan I noticed you censored yourself when you said "flip" instead of another word that starts with the same letter.

[@anthonychoate8043]

AROUND THE TIME THEY WOULDN'T SHOW ELVIS BELOW THE WAIST...I WISH IT WAS STILL LIKE THAT..TV IS WAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY OUT THERE NOWADAY

[@blairspaid8040]

he was the outlaw of his time

[@Flip86x]

Shel Silverstein was a genius.

[@corneliadenninger5395]

So was John R CASH!!!

[@petergant183]

I LOVE Johnny Cash's music, this ALMOST something like if Weird Al tried country music! It's a great story, very funny and I was leaning forward, like I did the first time I heard it! Love me some Cash, both Johnny and the green stuff

[@imcavdb5465]

Fifty years ago. I was two. And I did NOT know him 😁

[@SamJames2393]

this song is sung with the back drop of Jail House Rock ... So elvis must have been on the same show .... what a show that must have been

[@56Nikos]

JC IS SIMPLY AMAZING HERE !!!!

[@Bterrier1000]

I LOVE HIS FACE

[@jamuga60]

He did that performance under a good degree of duress I reckon. But he wouldn't let a little thing like a coughing fit or hiccups or such get in the way of that!....................................................A real pro.

[@shinobi5419]

No lip sync either wow, very nice.

[@im1who84u]

+Shin Obi No auto-tune either. That is the real voice.

[@gabrielfewkes1323]

I knowwww, so many videos from this era were lip synced studio recordings

[@RM-eo3uu]

@@gabrielfewkes1323 I don't know where you get your information from, lip-syncing was not something that was widely used in the late 60s or early 70s if at all. Country performers like Johnny Cash especially did not lip-sync.

Happy Birthday to the man in black.

Great song, story ..one of a kind talent. Try singing it, you’ll know what I mean . 👍🏽

[@godbluffvdgg]

To see his handsome beaming face at 3:11 and compare then it to his face in his version of Hurt video is a sad juxtaposition.
