Johnny Cash, American singer-songwriter, musician

“I keep a close watch on this heart of mine / I keep my eyes wide open all the time / I keep the ends out for the tie that binds / Because you’re mine, I walk the line / I find it very, very easy to be true / I find myself alone when each day’s through / Yes, I’ll admit that I’m a fool for you / Because you’re mine, I walk the line.” (From “I Walk the Line,” 1956)

Feb. 26, 1932-Sept. 12, 2003
