Johnny Cash never heard a train from Folsom Prison.

John Fogerty wasn’t born on the bayou, never even lived in the South.

Did we grow up with nothing but lies?

Next you’re gonna tell me Dolly Parton never worked 9 to 5,

The Proclaimers never walked 500 miles,
And the Beatles didn’t live in a yellow submarine.


What are some other lies we were sold?

Sober as a churchmouse. I just had my world turned upside down when someone told me John Denver was born in New Mexico and never lived in West Virginia. And now I’m going through all these songs and it turns out they’re all bullshite.

What the hell.

Johnny Cash stole a big chunk of that song from Beverly Maher and Gordon Jenkins.

I'm pretty sure he is mostly going to be remembered for spanking his monkey in a faulty home-made airplane.

Fun fact. Johnny Cash was on duty at an Air force listening post in Japan when Russian radio chatter about Stalin's death started breaking out. He was possibly the first westerner to learn of it.

What’s next!? You’re gonna tell me no one called Steve Miller a space Cowboy, a gangster of love, or Maurice? That he wasn’t a joker, a smoker, Or a midnight toker?

Does anyone tell the truth?

George Clooney was never a man of constant sorrow. Or much sorrow at all. He's actually had a rather charmed life.

Seems to me the 90s rockers were the most honest.
Jerry Cantrell is both a man in a box and down in a hole.
Scott Weiland is smelling like a rose that somebody gave him on his birthday deathbed.
(sucks because I'm a fan)
