Understand Your Man
By Johnny Cash
C Am
Don't call my name out your window I'm leaving
F G7
I won't even turn my head
C Am
Don't send your kin folks to give me no talking
D7 G7
I'll be gone like I said
C C7
You'd say the same old things that you've been saying all along
F
Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut 'til I'm gone
C Am
Don't give me that old familiar crying cussing moan
F G7 C Am
Understand your man I'm tired of your badmouthing
F G7 C
Understand your man
Am
You can give my other suits to the Salvation Army
F G7
And everything else I leave behind
C Am
I ain't taking nothing that'll slow down my traveling
D7 G7
While I'm untangling my mind
C C7
I ain't gonna repeat what I said anymore
F
While I'm breathing air that ain't been breathed before
C Am
I'll be as gone as a wild goose in winter
F G7 C Am
Then you'll understand your man meditate on it
F G7 C Am
Understand your man you hear me talking
F G7 C
Understand your man remember what I told ya
F G7 C
Understand your man
