The stars are ageless, aren't they?

A prison audience is the most exciting in the world. The men are with you, feeding you every second, maybe because they need you so bad…I gave them a stiff shot of realism, singing about the things they talk about, the outside, shooting, escaping, girlfriends, and coming to the end. They knew it was for them. Just them and me.  I kept thinking I could have been down there listening with the prisoners. Only been in jail twice, and just overnight, but you don’t need much to see what it’s like. Both times it was for pills, dexedrine. Second time I woke up in a Georgia jail not knowing how I got there. Could’ve ended up on a chain gang, but the jailer was a fan of mine and he let me go.  —Johnny Cash
