One of the songs in the new album "Hello I'm Johnny Cash" was written by a young man ,15 years old, Kenny Jones(1952-1969), who was the son of Helen Carter. We do this song tonight as a tribute to Kenny Jones who was killed in an automobile accident at the age of 16. And to give you an idea of the talents of this young man while he was with us. Here was a song that he wrote when he was 14. Hey little girl, with tears in your eyes Don't waste your time now, askin' me why I don't know, I know I'll just be movin' along You'd say that home is where my love is at I say that home is where I hang my hat The time has come to sing a travelin' song You own a house and a lot of close friends I love the feel of my back to the wind The two won't match, you know the caves so wild would be wrong You want your friends and love, a child and a home You can't buy love on a twenty year loan The time has come to sing a travelin' song
Someday where we sat on that old porch swing A tamer man might offer you a ring A man that wants his friends and neighbors, a child and a home Don't waste your tears on dreams that never can be What's right for others is not right for me The time has come to sing a travelin' song
The time has come to sing a travelin' song
