We Got Paid By Cash Song Lyrics and Chords by Statler Brothers

We Got Paid By Cash

Recorded by the Statler Brothers

Written by Harold Reid and Don Reid

C

It started March of sixty-four

F

many years a

C

go

We were hired by Johnny Cash to open up his

G7

show

Four

C

boys a worn-out Cadillac with a

F

road-map on the

C

dash

For the next eight and one-half years

G7

we got paid by

C

Cash

He took us down to Nashville to

F

Columbia

Stud

C

ios

Not knowing where we came from they told us where to

G7

go

But

C

Johnny said I like them don't

F

you give them no

C

trash

You see we were Johnny's little boys and

G7

we got paid by

C

Cash

F

We were there when

G7

June became

C

Johnny's loving

Am

bride

And we

F

sang to him that

C

morning our

D7

buddy Luther

G7

died

And

F

we were there when the

G7

son was born that

C

filled them both with

Am

pride

And

F

we were there when

C

John remembered

G7

God was on his

C

side

We watched on the concert stage we

F

watched him write his

C

songs

And saw the things we had to do and the things that could go

G7

wrong

And if we

C

had to start again we'd

F

do it in a

C

flash

Cause we learned more than we earned when

G7

we got paid by

C

Cash

And then the time when our career de

F

manded that we

C

go

And through some tears we all shook hands that last and final

G7

show

C

All those years we never had a

F

contract or a

C

plan

Whatever we may be today we

G7

owe it all to

C

Cash

Repeat #3

Now John will tell you there were years

F

when times were good and

C

bad

But we can tell you they were some of the best we ever

G7

had

C

Carl Perkins and The Carter's and

F

The Tennessee

C

Three

We were one big happy family and would have

G7

done it all for

C

free
