Influences: Johnny had always said that he is not bothered by fame and constant spotlight attention, "I go to the movies, to the grocery store, wherever I want to go. There'll be maybe one or two or three people, maybe, in a half hour's time that will stop me to talk. Which is fine, I've met a lot of good people that way. I refuse to be a prisoner of my celebrity." Challenging Cash's claim that he doesn't mind when fans interrupt him for autographs, Emery asks what he would do if someone interrupted his dinner. "Lay down my fork," says Cash.
I wouldn't let anybody influence me into thinking I was doing the wrong thing by singing about death, hell and drugs. Beause I've always done that, and I always will.
Sometimes I am two people. Johnny is the nice one. Cash causes all the trouble. They fight.
I love songs about horses, railroads, land, Judgment Day, family, hard times, whiskey, courtship, marriage, adultery, separation, murder, war, prison, rambling, damnation, home, salvation, death, pride, humor, piety, rebellion, patriotism, larceny, determination, tragedy, rowdiness, heartbreak and love. And Mother. And God.
How well I have learned that there is no fence to sit on between heaven and hell. There is a deep, wide gulf, a chasm, and in that chasm is no place for any man.
