Cool and quick and whiskey on his breath Singin' songs like he was cheatin' death Howlin' at the dark side of the sun Louder than a madman waves a gun And when I seen him take the stage I just knew it right away I wanna be Johnny In a big black Cadillac With my road trash army And a cocktail waitress on my lap And the whole damn world can kiss my ass Wanna be big bad Johnny Cash Elvis is alive or so they say Marilyn Monroe, she's just okay I don't know enough about James Dean But Johnny is the man that I wanna be And when I haven't got a clue I ask myself "what would Johnny do?" Cuz I wanna be Johnny In a big black Cadillac With my road trash army And a cocktail waitress on my lap And the whole damn world can kiss my little ass Wanna be big bad Johnny Cash Big bad Johnny Cash Big bad Johnny Cash Big bad Johnny Cash In a big bad big bad Cadillac Cadillac yeah! Cadillac! In a big black Cadillac lookin' like a badass! Johnny In a big black Cadillac With my road trash army And a cocktail waitress on my lap And the whole damn world can kiss my ass Wanna be big bad Johnny Cash I wanna be big bad Johnny Cash I wanna be big bad Johnny Cash
