There was this cat
dressed in black
and he wore it
most all his life
He said he wore it
for the people
who had troubles
in all their life
I said hey there
Mr. cash
would you mind if
I wear black
hey there
Mr. cash
pass the torch
I got your back
well the cat
dressed in black
is gone
but not forgotten
cause his music
that he gave us
will live on
through you and me
Mr. cash
if you're listening
if you see ole waylon
tell him we miss him too
