Johnny Cash - the man in black was the real deal

Johnny Cash part Cherokee Indian

"Three Chords and the Truth," is supposedly the basis of Country and Western music, for a man like Johnny Cash, he was a man that lived every note of the manuscript of his life.

If I could get to meet anyone in history, then one of the people I would want to meet would be Johnny Cash, to talk with him about his life, music and his roots way back from the Cherokee Indian people.

Johnny Cash was the real deal, a man who knew what dirt was because he worked it, on a farm and he knew what dirt poor was too because he had lived through the depression of the 1930's.

That's how he started out, his break came when he joined the US Air Force, bought himself a guitar and helped create the popular music industry of the post war age.

I saw a great video of Johnny from the late 50's I would guess, on a black and white TV show about country music and he sang a song called 'Big River' backed by a small band. 

You could just tell from his performance that he was the real deal. He knew that the elements of nature were powerful and interacted with each other, because all of the Indian people had the knowledge of the way to live a respectful and good life. 

The Indian Chief of the Nez Perce tribe stated that 'it only takes a few words to speak the truth.' He was right. And three chords to put  it music works fine.
