Taken from the “Nashville Now” show of 1988, this clip features the legendary Johnny Cash performing “Tennessee Flat Top Box” live.
In a little cabaret in a South Texas border town,
Sat a boy and his guitar, and the people came from all around.
And all the girls from there to Austin,
Were slippin’ away from home and puttin’ jewelery in hock.
To take the trip, to go and listen,
To the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.
