John Ray Cash, mais conhecido como Johnny Cash, (Kingsland, 26 de Fevereiro de 1932 — Nashville, 12 de Setembro de 2003) foi um cantor e compositor americano de música Country, conhecido por seus fãs como "O Homem de Preto". Em uma carreira que durou quase cinco décadas, ele foi para muitas pessoas a personificação do Country.

E Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, F#B7 And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. EA And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River. EB7E Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
[Instrumental]
E I met her accidentally in St. Paul (Minnesota). F#B7 And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl. EA Then I heard my dream was back Downstream cavortin' in Davenport, EB7E And I followed you, Big River, when you called.
E Then you took me to St. Louis later on (down the river). F#B7 A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone. EA I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block. EB7E She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone.
[Instrumental]
E Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on. F#B7 Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans. EA Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf. EB7E She loves you, Big River, more than me.
E Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, F#B7 And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. EA And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River. EB7E......E7 Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
