the beast in me
Singer:johnny cash
is caged by frail and fragile bars
and by night rants and rages at the stars
has had to learn to live with pain
and how to shelter from the rain
and in the twinkling of an eye
might have to be restrained
sometimes it tries to kid me
that it's just a teddy bear
and even somehow manage to vanish in the air
and that is when i must beware
of the beast in me that everybody knows
they've seen him out dressed in my clothes
if it's new york or new year
