Cash, Johnny - Guess Things Happen That Way Lyrics






Well you ask me if I'll forget my baby.
I guess I will, someday.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.
You ask me if I'll get along.
I guess I will, someway.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

God gave me that girl to lean on,
then he put me on my own.
Heaven help me be a man
and have the strength to stand alone.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

You ask me if I'll miss her kisses.
I guess I will, everyday.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.
You ask me if I'll find another.
I don't know. I can't say.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

God gave me that girl to lean on,
then he put me on my own.
Heaven help me be a man
and have the strength to stand alone.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

Cash, Johnny Guess Things Happen That Way Comments
  1. D.... S....

    This is for you Emma.
    My wife - she's gone now, broke my heart and left me writhing on the floor. Be good to yourself beautiful and never settle for anything less than perfection. I will love you until I die.

    I was a doorman at a few clubs where Johnny Cash's buddy Ronnie Hawkins and his Hawks appeared.
    I was as a young teen of 16 years. I had just won the Metro Toronto and Ontario under 18 Amateur Wrestling

    championships.

    I looked and acted like I was in my twenties because I started interacting and working out at 14 years of age with the professional wrestlers who appeared at Maple Leaf Gardens on College Ave in Toronto, Ontario,

    Canada and worked out at The Central YMCA just two blocks west across Yonge Street.
    Johnny was going through a tough part of his life trying to shake his demons and would crash in Ronnie Hawkins dressing room in Toronto's Concord Tavern, London's Campbell's Nightclub, Brass Rail,

    City Hall, Hamilton, Grand Bend Beach and Ronnie's office at his Hawk's Nest on Yonge Street. He was always very friendly and called me The Polish Prince because he heard my young band "The Polish

    Polka Kings" play during a jam session on a Saturday afternoon at the Imperial Hotel on Main Street in Grand Bend, Ontario. Grand Bend is a popular at the summer Beach Resort on the white sands of

    Lake Huron and attracts many celebs including Justin Bieber.
    We lost a great singer, person and everyone's friend when we lost Johnny Cash. I don't like it but I "Guess things happen that way"

    The guy who wrote this song - Jack Clement - was a friend of mine. A few years ago his house / studio burned down. He sat on a bench behind the house -- in his sleeping gown -- watching the house burn, singing (in his most unassuming gentle manner), "I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way...." That was Jack.

    Put piano instrumentals and slow it down, it can become a more sad song... (I think)

  51. T.... D....

    I always wondered if I grew up in the early 60's if I would have listed to the Sun Records guys or the British Rock acts. Of course I love the Beatles, Stones etc...But something tells me I would have thought they would have been the equivalent of boy bands today.  

    T.... D....

    I always thought that too

  52. S.... ....

    I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way.

  53. S.... L....

    you don't need to comment to appreciate it

  56. C.... O....

    Why isn't their any comments on these videos. Are people really that blind to realize this was the best music.

    C.... O....

    you deaf but what really happened was people convinced the people now that 50s was good stuff and then now people are confused because someone said cash and presley was what they were listening too instead they were bumping too lil wayne and rick ross
