Johnny Cash It Ain't Nothing New Babe lyrics

It ain't nothing new, babe
It's just a dream that fell through, babe
And the plans that you have to make
Will be made here and now
With your head slightly bowed
You can see life goes on, girl
And the weak must grow strong, girl

On your journey through this old world
You will soon understand that the love of your man
Was a shoulder to cry on and a friend
To rely on but it wasn't worth dying for
When he told you goodbye
When he told you goodbye

There's just one thing for certain
The pain won't stop hurtin'

Till you go back to workin' with
Something left that you love
Because the push and the shove of the everyday
Day now has become such a hassle
And your only dream castle disappeared
In the sky when he told you goodbye

Well it ain't nothing new, babe
It's just a dream that fell through, babe
And the steps that you have to take
Will be taken somehow
They'll be taken right now
'Cause it ain't nothing new, babe
