Johnny Cash - Kate Lyrics
Well I saw you with another
It made me lose my mind
Shot you with my '38
And now I'm doin' time
And you put me here
Well there's no way to doubt
There ain't no two ways about it
As sure as your name's Kate
You put me here
I've been tryin' to tell 'em
That I didn't do no wrong
Only gave you what you been
Deservin' all along
And you put me here
There ain't no use denyin'
You done it with your lyin'
As sure as your name's Kate
You put me here
Well the jury found me guilty
They wouldn't hear my plea
I listened as that judge said
Murder in the first degree
And you put me here
You put me here
Well there ain't no need to doubt
There ain't no two ways about it
As sure as your name's Kate
You put me here
Now the warden and the preacher
They're lettin' me go slow
It won't be long until I'm gone
Just thirteen steps to go
And you put me here
You put me here
There's just one way to figure
Your cheatin' pulled the trigger
As sure as your name's Kate
You put me here
Well there ain't no need to doubt
There ain't no two ways about it
As sure as your name's Kate
You put me here
Kate, you just plain bad, you know that...

Johnny Cash Kate Comments
Someone sent me this today and I have conflicted feelings about this 😄😆😂
I just made my gf listen to this. She ain't called Kate, but she had conflicted feelings about this as well. :D :D
Run for your life
Looking for a song with my name n finally found one
The monster cash!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hah my name is Kate
"Shot you with my 38, and now i'm doing time" most badass line ever
No shit I love that line
Slightly faulted logic but great song haha
sorry man ;) i'm still alive... you thought!!
We have the same name lol
aye same name
So I guess he made songs about some of the stories of the prison inmates he played for.
my uncle released this song in Texas before Jonny Cash got ahold of it...Don Shaw who went by Rex Douglas on the Record,flip side was 1600 miles from home...i wish i had that 45 again it was on Stella records
Great song..written by one of the best performers ever, the great Marty Robbins.
Sorry maybe we had a misunderstanding, I thought you meant Bob was the who created the style...
The song, Kate, was recorded January 13, 1972 & February 11, 1972; Luther passed away August 1968.
It's Luther's creation. Not Bob's.
There is not such thing as a bad song by Johnny Cash.
Thank you
i am your sukaaaaa;))))))))))))))))))) ahahha
whore ! whore ! whoreee !!!
:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I love this song; it has some great Luther Perkins style picking, courtesy of Bob Wootton. It's Bob's creation, in the unique style of Luther!
first cash song i ever heard is a child we had this 45 !
This .45 Colt, you mean…
Johnny Cash=Badass
R.I.P. Johnny '32-'03
there is a home movie of me when i was about 3 years old dancing around the record player to this ... i'm not a psycho i swear ! but great song !
I think this is a great song! Why it's not on more Greatest Hits CDs is beyond me. We only had this song on a worn cassette so it's great to hear this again!
Well... maybe because of the lyrics? A man singing out loud veeery proudly about him killing her girl. It sounds quite violent and misoginistic nowadays
well, fuck nowadays - music is music. i don't think rap songs (?) are pacifist, but they still play them.
