Cash, Johnny - Unchained Lyrics






I have been ungrateful,
I've been unwise.
Restless from the cradle,
Now I realize,
It's so hard to see the rainbow,
Through glasses dark as these.
Maybe I'll be able,
From now on, on my knees.

Oh, I am weak.
Oh, I know I am vain.
Take this weight from me,
Let my spirit be unchained.

Old man swearin' at the sidewalk,
I'm overcome.
Seems that we've both forgotten,
Forgotten to go home.
Have I seen an angel?
Oh, have I seen a ghost?
Where's that rock of ages,
When I need it most?

Oh, I am weak.
Oh, I know I am vain.
Take this weight from me,
Let my spirit be unchained.

    Let´s go home, Jesus is very close, even though
    we can not feel him every day as present. Accept his help as your savior.
    Let´s go home to the eternal homeland.

    You've come to the right place, it's Hollywood.
    This is a blues song.
    Lemme tell ya mine.
    It's a big extravaganza in the Hollywood Hills
    For the likes of Phyllis Diller and Ermer Dills.
    Forgotten to go home.
    Where's that rock of ages when I need it most.
    Johnny Cash is still my son. From Fresno like Buck Owens
    We're nowhere near done with this just yet.
    Through glasses dark as these.
