Cash, Johnny - Out Among The Stars Lyrics
It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas
Closing time another day is done
When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol
He can't find a job but Lord he's found a gun
That he lets the old man run out in the street
Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing
Already he can feel that great relief
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers
He knows that when they're shooting at this loser
They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars
The evening news carries all the details
He dies in every living room in town
In his own a bottle's thrown in anger
And his father cries we'll never live this down
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars
And fly like eagles out among the stars

IL PIÙ GRANDE INARRIVABILE
"Среди звёзд"
Полночь в винном магазине в Техасе
Закрыто, ещё один день прошёл
Когда парень появился в двери и замахал пистолетом
Он не может найти работу, но, Боже, он нашёл оружие
Он вытащил его без тени сомнения
В том что позволил старику выбежать на улицу
Даже зная, что они придут с ружьями и будут палить
Он уже чувствует это великое облегчение
О, как много путников устают
Неся свои ноши и свои раны
Думаешь им не хотелось бы начать всё заново
И летать как орлы среди звёзд
Он представляет прибытие полицейских
Видит ту старую злость в их глазах
Он знает, что когда они будут стрелять в этого неудачника
Он будут целиться в дьяволов в своих жизнях
О, как много путников устают
Неся свои ноши и свои раны
Думаешь им не хотелось бы начать всё заново
И летать как орлы среди звёзд
Вечерние новости показывают все подробности
Он умирает в каждой гостиной города
Сам в себя засадил бутылкой в ярости
И его отец плачет, что мы не вынесем этого
О, как много путников устают
Неся свои ноши и свою боль
Думаешь им не хотелось бы начать всё заново
И летать как орлы среди звёзд
И летать как орлы среди звёзд
This song touches me. God bless you, Johnny. You were such a large part of my life. Rest in peace.
Miss this man
This album makes "Hurt" hurt so much more
Why have I never heard this song before?
Amen, Johnny Cash...
This song almost perfectly describes the death of Dallas Winston in "The Outsiders"
Only Johnny Cash could make a song about suicide by cop poignant and funny
and Cash is the best voice for it
This, in my opinion, is the best song on Earth 🌎
Waiting for this to appear on the end credits of a sci-fi movie
I was going to say...but I was only halfway through the song...what can I possibly say? Just...pain and truth.
Even the American barrier breaker Chuck Norris has no power to not pay respects for the man that is Johnny Cash! Chuck Norris is forced into polite submission at the mention of his name!
R.i.p cash
80 people thought it said Dis i like
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
heres a wierd fact
this song was written by adam mitchell who used to be in a band from canada called the paupers
THAT band where the heros and inspiration of the canadian mega rock band RUSH
yeah that RUSH the super technical heavy progressive metal band
Somehow this is my first time listening to this song, yet I got nostalgia goose bumps. That says something.
Love Johnny
This is great. Where has it been hiding. Maybe even better than Waylon's version.
one hell of a song!
purely amazing.
"He can't find a job, but Lord, he's found a gun"
"They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives"
Great Album, I got it.. CASH the legend
we should a;; be -- > flying like a Eagle out among the stars !!
Love d man bn big influence from early age the big mans family history streaches bak to Scotland coming from Glasgow 2 d Americas n 1667 as pilgrims 😎👍✌️
Неплохая песня
love this song!
Oh, how many travelers get weary
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars?
RIP. MOM DAD. GRAMPA GRANDMA
52 Idiots have No Ears. CHEERZ JOHNNY. LOVE YOUR MUSIC. Rip The Man In Black..
Happy Birthday, old fellow...
"Even though he knows they'll come with guns ablazin, already he can feel a great relief"
It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas
Closing time another day is done
When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol
He can't find a job but Lord he's found a gun
He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation
That he lets the old man run out in the street
Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing
Already he can feel that great relief
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers
Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes
He knows that when they're shooting at this loser
They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars
The evening news carries all the details
He dies in every living room in town
In his own a bottle's thrown in anger
And his father cries we'll never live this down
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
And fly like eagles out among the stars
Why do you feel the need to do this?
what is the problem, dude?
one of the best
R.I.P Man in Black Johnny Cash gone but never forgotten. R.I.P June Carter Cash.
melhor que jhony cash .só ele mesmo.
"He can't find a job... but lord he's found a gun". Damn, that song hits hard, and deep! Cash was and still is way way up there among the stars.
damn what a sad song.
I'm not gunna lie this entire song fucks with me. The story hits really hard.
I love him so much!!
thank you Jesus Christ
"And his father cries, we'll never live this down!" can't help but laugh. Such a good song.
+Han Shot 1st you thought that was funny? i thought it was sad.
his boy died a loser criminal and his only thought was "we'll never live this down"
+Tamerlane Ikr.... In what sense is it funny? And the line is, "his father cries, will never love this down" not We'll. ??????
+Bipin we'll never live this down, small towns news spreads and sticks, you'll always be known as the family who's son robbed a place etc
You shitlords obviously didn't have shitty fathers, or you would see the little bit of humor.
Great subtle social commentary of the state of this nation about police brutality and the desperation of the lower class.
Maravilhoso, sem palavras, amo de paixão <3
every now and then a human being comes into the world and takes a beautiful picture of the spirit
the best singer, no one will be so good rest in peace
Mas vivo do que nunca .....
é nois mano achei que eu era o unico br que escuta as músicas dele
+HumbertoZ Junior teu cu mano hahahah, conheço uma pa de gente q escuta
+leonardo Vargas Sim, mas aqui na net é dificil hahaha
Johnny Cash is my hero
This is exactly where Johnny is. Out among the stars!
amen to that
I love his songs
But his songs will remain forever, he won't be forgotten.
My favorite singer songwriter of all time
he dead
Walk the line dear artist
I love this song. It reminds me of a year ago, which was probably the happiest year I will ever have
suicide by a swine. XD Johnny cash is the shit.
@Abiasaf López ....?
@Grti Arde listen to the song its called suicide by a cop.
Great song
i like haggerd better
Great old tune. For a really good reincarnation of Johnny's music (and Waylon's too) check out Brian Keele and you won't be disappointed! I've been listening to him everyday now since I found him about a week ago.
Love it.. the greatest man to ever pick up a guitar.
Love this!
Good version,but I prefer Merle Haggards
Just had to post this.
Johnny.... why'd you die on us, boy? You were supposed to be immortal...
Heroes are remembered, but legends never die.
He's flying out among the stars.
+Zeratul723 Isn't he deathless, though? Gods die but the spirits of music are without birth or death. They are the eternal.
He wanted to be with June... & I cannot blame him!!!
Beautiful , great music, we still mis you Johnny en June xxx
Magnificent story telling!!!!
This is what TRUE country is. Today's country has strayed so far from its roots that you can hardly differenciate it from the modern garbage. Alot of singers need to take a chapter from legends like cash.
Actually modern pop isn't trashy. It just because most of the old generations didn't accept them.
@Bryangantengful im just saying its barely sounding like country anymore. Nowadays they just figure you can sing about beer in a southern accent and call it country.
I can see your point there mate, all the people that say Taylor Swift is Country, SHE'S NOT!!! She's a pop singer like everyone else is, modern day crap! Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, Charley Pride, Waylon Jennings and so on... are REAL COUNTRY ARTISTS!!!
@Dominator6281 yeah hopefully people will wake up and see how far modern "country" has strayed from what real country is
This is brilliant! I've must of heard every cash song a million times now so a new song like this an this good is great!
Quite a song really, which speaks to so much about the American Dream, so much for the American dream.
The American Dream isn't dead, Responsibility just isn't very popular in this sanctimonious liberal age.
Isaiah 40:31
Jennifer Walker best comment on here! you got the meaning
I would love to start all over.
You know, some artists might consider an album like this a major high watermark artist accomplishment, but for Cash, it's buried in his back catalog from a time when he was less popular. All those trends have come and gone over the last quarter of a century, but the dust has settled, and his music is still here. Picked this album up and popped it in after a long, hard work day. Every now and then, it's nice to be reminded that maybe there's still a little magic left in the world. The Man in Black may be gone, but the gifts he gave us will live on. RIP, Johnny. We miss you. But hopefully you're out there watching us, somewhere out among the stars
hanshotfirst1138 amen
Eternal magic
So what?! Are you always "on Top" in your business? I guess no, you aren't... And, from your nickname, one could easily suppose you are tended to overestimate yourself. Compare yourself to Johnny - and keep quiet...
@Steffen Pollex You woke up on the wrong side, huh?
Un maestro total. Inolvidable y admirable. Lo escuché por primera vez en el invierno (austral) de 1959, cuando pasó de la Sun a la Columbia, con aquel superhit "All over again" y de ahí en más, tanta, pero tanta música estupenda. Será otro de los grandes que siempre pervivirá en esa nube fantástica de los héroes magnos de la música popular y con el encanto incomparable del C & W. Chau!, Nacho.
Actually most of Johnny Cashes songs are not written by him they are at written by other people and he sings them if you want to go true American it's George Jones most of his songs are written himself
grazie johnny, ha continuato a stupirci e a farci viaggiare out among the stars!
He really could write them to bite deep.
I'm waiting for somebody to edit a load of Firefly clips with this...
12 pigeons out among the stars
We miss you Johnny, hope you're doing well out among the stars.
Sad that Johnny couldn't be here to release this but in a way it's iconic. He isn't here anymore but his music will always live on. Not forgotten Mr. Cash! We love you! Some of his best work, even though it's all amazing. Will be buying. RIP man in black
Local Natives' beautiful cover brought me here
this my mom's CD
great as ever wow such a tune weeeeeaaary
post man pat stole these chords
bet the 9 people that dont like this have sucked justin beier dick
What a classic from one of the greatest country singer to walk this Earth. Johnny Cash .... the man, the singer, the passion, the authenticity, the belief, the heart, THE VOICE. Ireland has always loved Johnny Cash .......America stand tall and be proud of one of your greatest sons. No one could sing this song with more conviction that Johnny .....he could always mine the perfect jewel. Thank God we lived in the same era as Johnny Cash.
8 peopels can go fuck them self
8 people thought the Dislike button has the same function as Like button , since that you can't dislike The Man In Black.
Awesome, like everything Johnny did..:)
This is a masterpiece . A definite hit...
Johnny cash- A true American!
Because he was half native American? Yes.
@GavinN420 actually he wasn't... the book "Johnny Cash" tells that he used to imagine things and his roots came from Ireland. :)
@GavinN420 no, because he was born in america
+Otso Pänttönen Scotland, not Ireland. But Johnny Cash still really looks like someone who could pass as a Native American though, despite not having native ancestry.
+LiamandLewisPlay Johnny cash- a true artist....He was born in America or he wasnt doesnt matter his music is surely universal and touching millions hearts including me.i love you johnny cash.
PERO QUE TEMASO LA RECONCHA DE SU MADRE
BUT WHAT A SONG FUCKING MATHER
es alimento para mi alma / is food for my soul
Johnny Cash will live forever
Lovin' This
I feel as if this song should've been found long before ole Johnny kicked the bucket.
I mean, this song alone makes the album worth it.
this is so sad
This song.
This song and album was like finding a fine wine that required aging. JOHNNY CASH THEME PARK IN GATLINBURG WITH A TRAIN RIDE?? :)
That would be amazing.
