"Wanna Be Big Bad Johnny Cash" lyrics

Cool and quick and whiskey on his breath
Singin' songs like he was cheatin' death
Howlin' at the dark side of the sun
Louder than a madman waves a gun

And when I seen him take the stage
I just knew it right away

I wanna be Johnny
In a big black Cadillac
With my road trash army
And a cocktail waitress on my lap
And the whole damn world can kiss my ass
Wanna be big bad Johnny Cash

Elvis is alive or so they say
Marilyn Monroe, she's just okay
I don't know enough about James Dean
But Johnny is the man that I wanna be

And when I haven't got a clue
I ask myself "what would Johnny do?"

Cuz I wanna be Johnny
In a big black Cadillac
With my road trash army
And a cocktail waitress on my lap
And the whole damn world can kiss my little ass
Wanna be big bad Johnny Cash

Big bad Johnny Cash
Big bad Johnny Cash
Big bad Johnny Cash
In a big bad big bad Cadillac Cadillac yeah!
Cadillac!

In a big black Cadillac lookin' like a badass!

Johnny
In a big black Cadillac
With my road trash army
And a cocktail waitress on my lap
And the whole damn world can kiss my ass
Wanna be big bad Johnny Cash
I wanna be big bad Johnny Cash
I wanna be big bad Johnny Cash
