Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G][C]
[D]For[G][D]
[G]two long years
my head hurt bad
So the [C]doctor checked me
an he shook his head
He said, "I'm [D]sorry to tell you
But your body's outlived
[G]your brain"[D]
He said, "I know [G]this doctor
in New York, son
And he'll [C]fix you right up with
a brand new one"
So the [D]head doctor met me when I
stepped down off of [G]the train[D]

[Verse 2]
He said, "We [G]had this bank
robber killed last night
His [C]body's shot but
his brain's alright
[D]I'll give you a transplant, boy,
and you'll [G]be okay"[D]
I got my [G]new brain in and I was feelin' great
I went right [C]back to Nashville
with no headache
But something [D]strange happened when
I walked in the bank [G]one day

[Verse 3]
I said, "Stick 'em [C]up everybody,
I'm robbin' this place
Drop [G]all of your money
in my guitar case
Don't [C]nobody move and don't
nobody reach for that [D]door"
A lady [G]said, "Why,
you're Johnny Cash"
I said, [C]"No ma'am,
I'm the Manhattan Flash
And [D]I am the best bank robber
in New [G]York"

[Verse 4]
Now the [G]other night,
Roy Acuff called me
He said, [C]"John,
I'd like for you to do the Opry
So [D]I went out on the stage,
but I couldn't [G]sing"[D]
I got into a [G]half a verse of
"I Walk The Line"
And [C]something snapped
in this head of mine
I yelled, [D]"Stick 'em up
Give me your money,
your watches and ring[G]s"[Ab]

[Verse 5]
Well, I called [Ab]New York and
talked to that brain quack
I said, [Db]"Doc,
I've gotta have my old brain back"
He [Eb]said, "I'm sorry there, Mr. Cash,
but I can't do [Ab]that"[Eb]
He said, "I put [Ab]your brain in
a chicken last Monday
He's [Db]singing your songs
and makin' lots of money
And I [Eb]got him signed to a ten-year
recording recording con[Ab]tract"[Eb]

[Verse 6]
Now, [Ab]friends,
if you see me walkin' down the street
Remember [Db]what you see
ain't necessarily me
And [Eb]if I try to hold you up,
don't pay me no [Ab]mind[Eb]
But when you got [Ab]ten bucks
that you can blow
You [Db]oughta catch that Johnny
Chicken show
He's [Eb]doin' fairs and concert dates
all up and down the [Ab]line

[Verse 7]
I said, "Stick 'em [Db]up everybody,
I'm robbin' this place
Drop [Ab]all of your money
in my guitar case
Don't [Db]nobody move and don't
nobody reach for that [Eb]door"
A lady [Ab]said, "Why,
you're Johnny Cash"
I said, [Db]"No ma'am,
I'm the Manhattan Flash
And [Eb]I am the best bank
robber in New York"
[Ab]

[Verse 8]
[Eb]
Well, I don't pay any income tax
You don't pay tax on money
you steal
You oughta catch that Johnny
Chicken show

[Outro 1]
Chicken in black
