<pre><font size='+2'>ONEY lyrics CASH JOHNNY</font><br>Written by Jerry Chestnut<br />
 Recorded by Johnny Cash on 6/5/72<br />
 Number 2 - County Chart<br />
 <br />
 I dedicate this song to the workin` man<br />
 For ever` man that puts in a hard<br />
 Eight or ten hours a day of work and toil and sweat<br />
 Always got somebody lookin` down his neck<br />
 Tryin` to get more out of `im<br />
 Than he really ought to have to put in.<br />
 <br />
 After twenty-nine long years of workin`<br />
 In this shop with Oney standin` over me ...<br />
 Today when that old whistle blows<br />
 I`ll check in all my gear and I`ll retire ...<br />
 <br />
 The superintendent just dropped by and said<br />
 They`d planned my little get together ...<br />
 Then he said I`d never a made it<br />
 If old Oney hadn`t held me to the fire.<br />
 <br />
 I`ve seen him in my dreams at night<br />
 And woke up in the mornin` feelin` tired ...<br />
 And old Oney don`t remember, when I came here<br />
 How he tried to get me fired ...<br />
 With his folded hands behind him<br />
 Every mornin` Oney waited at the gate ...<br />
 Where he`d rant and rave like I committed murder<br />
 Clockin` in five minutes late.<br />
 <br />
 But today they`ll gather `round me<br />
 Like I`ve seen `em do when any man retires <br />
 Then old Oney`s gonna tell me<br />
 From now on I`m free to do what I desire ...<br />
 <br />
 He`ll present me with that little old gold watch<br />
 They give a man at times like this ...<br />
 But there`s one thing he`s not countin` on<br />
 Today`s the day I give old Oney his.<br />
 <br />
 I`ve been workin`, buildin` muscles<br />
 Oney`s just been standin` `round a gettin` soft<br />
 And today about four-thirty<br />
 I`ll make up for every good night`s sleep I`ve lost ...<br />
 When I`m gone I`ll be remembered<br />
 As the workin` man who put his point across<br />
 With a right hand full of knuckles<br />
 `Cause today I show old Oney who`s the boss.<br />
 <br />
 Hmmmm! What time is it? Four thirty! <br />
 Hey, Oney! <br />
 Oney! Ha ha ha ha!<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/oney_lyrics-cash_johnny.html" target='_blank'>ONEY lyrics CASH JOHNNY</a></pre>

Number 2 - County Chart

I dedicate this song to the workin` man
For ever` man that puts in a hard
Eight or ten hours a day of work and toil and sweat
Always got somebody lookin` down his neck
Tryin` to get more out of `im
Than he really ought to have to put in.

After twenty-nine long years of workin`
In this shop with Oney standin` over me ...
Today when that old whistle blows
I`ll check in all my gear and I`ll retire ...

The superintendent just dropped by and said
They`d planned my little get together ...
Then he said I`d never a made it
If old Oney hadn`t held me to the fire.

I`ve seen him in my dreams at night
And woke up in the mornin` feelin` tired ...
And old Oney don`t remember, when I came here
How he tried to get me fired ...
With his folded hands behind him
Every mornin` Oney waited at the gate ...
Where he`d rant and rave like I committed murder
Clockin` in five minutes late.

But today they`ll gather `round me
Like I`ve seen `em do when any man retires
Then old Oney`s gonna tell me
From now on I`m free to do what I desire ...

He`ll present me with that little old gold watch
They give a man at times like this ...
But there`s one thing he`s not countin` on
Today`s the day I give old Oney his.

I`ve been workin`, buildin` muscles
Oney`s just been standin` `round a gettin` soft
And today about four-thirty
I`ll make up for every good night`s sleep I`ve lost ...
When I`m gone I`ll be remembered
As the workin` man who put his point across
With a right hand full of knuckles
`Cause today I show old Oney who`s the boss.

Hmmmm! What time is it? Four thirty!
Hey, Oney!
Oney! Ha ha ha ha!
