Good on you, EV. Thanks for the tribute.

I saw the 'Closer' video a couple of weeks ago. I was crying then and I'm crying now. My son thinks I'm nuts, but I just really liked Cash. I knew he wouldn't last long after June died.

Very sad. God bless you, Mr. Cash.

Passin' Thru
-Words & Music by Randy Scruggs & Johnny Cash

I have stood upon the mountain
  I have seen the other side
I have wrestled with the devil
  I have wrestled with my pride
I have been down in the valley
  I have stood out in the rain
I have seen my love forsaken
  Felt the pleasure and the pain
There's one thing that's for certain
  One chord that rings true
It's a mighty world we live in
  But the truth is, we're only passin' thru

I have cried in tears of sadness
  I have cried in tears of joy
I have found a life worth livin'
  From the peace within the noise
I have turned by back on hatred
  Lyin', prejudice and greed
Found the future in the present
  Found hope within a seed
There's one thing that's for certain
  One chord that rings true
It's a mighty world we live in
  But the truth is, we're only passin' thru

Passin' thru, passin' thru
  It's a mighty world we live in
but the truth is
  We're only passin' thru

I have seen my bucket empty
  I have seen my well run dry
But there's water down the road
  And I'm only goin' by
If I'm settin' on dead ready
  When my chances come and knock
I'll make it where I'm going
  I'll be tall just like a rock

There's one thing that's for certain
  One chord that rings true
It's a wicked world we live in
  But the truth is, we're only passin' thru
Passin' thru, passin' thru

It's a mighty world we live in
  but the truth is
We're only passin' thru

Yea, it's a mighty world we live in
  but the truth is
We're only passin' thru
