Cash in the attic (Michael Patrick, Co 2011)

(VERSE I)
It was years ago,when the old house sold
and we were packin for the move
I pulled the rope down from the staircase that led up to the roof

As I crouched down the floor boards
I started walkin on my knees
tucked away back in the corner
I found a box of 33's

A face stared out from the record case
I blew the dust off of the sleeve
I could see the wear the years made
but it survived its' share of plays

I remember how dad sang along
since then many years have passed
The cover graced by a man in black
it said "hello, im johnny cash"

CHORUS:

And I found Cash in the Attic
on a sunday afternoon
In a box of faded memories
there were gems inside those tunes

for 30 some odd years
a burried treasure in my home

I found a pot of gold
when johnny sang
the songs I've come to know

(VERSE II)

I opened up the rusty Latch
on that beat up phonograph
placed a nickel on the needle
just like we used to in the past

as that record label spun around
it had me hypnotized
from a 3 inch speaker came a ten foot sound
it was a song called cry, cry, cry

CHORUS
SOLO

BRIDGE

well he sang songs of the railroads and about a boy named Sue
Johnny walked the line past Folsom and he gave his love to June

CHORUS
