A previously unheard recitation by the late Johnny Cash called "I Am The Nation" will be released October 28 on a DVD/CD package titled Johnny Cash's America.

The poignant words were originally a public relations advertisement written in 1955 for the Norfolk and Western Railway by Otto Whittaker.

I wouldn’t doubt it if he gets out in his yard in the middle of the night with tweezers to pluck the dead grass blades out. If there ever were a...read more...
It isn't the thing you do, dear,
Its the thing you leave undone
That gives you a bit of a heartache
At setting of the sun.
The tender work forgotten,
The letter you did not write,
The flowers you did not send, dear,
Are your haunting ghosts at night. read more...
