[Verse 1]
E7 A
E7    A
  For two long years my head hurt bad
       D
So the doctor checked me an he shook his head
             E7
He said, I'm sorry to tell you
But your body's outlived your brain
A E7           A
    He said, I know this doctor in New York,
son
          D
And he'll fix you right up with a brand new one
       E7
So the head doctor met me when I stepped down off of the
train
A E7
    He said,
   A
We had this bank robber killed last night
    D
His body's shot but his brain's alright
E7
I'll give you a transplant, boy,
and you'll be okay
A
E7            A
  I got my new brain in and I was feelin' great
            D
I went right back to Nashville with no headache
              E7
But something strange happened when I walked in the bank
    A
one day

[Chorus]
                  D
I said, Stick 'em up everybody,
I'm robbin' this place
        A
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
      D                                           E7
Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door
    A
A lady said, Why, you're Johnny Cash
        D
I said, No ma'am,
I'm the Manhattan Flash
      E7
And I am the best bank robber in New York

[Verse 2]
A        A
 Now the other night,
Roy Acuff called me
         D
He said, John,
I'd like for you to do the Opry
     E7
So I went out on the stage,
               A   E7
but I couldn't sing
             A
I got into a half a verse of I Walk The Line
    D
And something snapped in this head of mine
          E7
I yelled, Stick 'em up
Give me your money,
your watches and rings

[Verse 3]
A Bb
    Well,
        Bb
I called  New York and talked to that brain quack
        Eb
I said, Doc,
I've gotta have my old brain back
   F7
He said, I'm sorry there, Mr.
Cash, but I can't do that
Bb F7
     He said,
  Bb
I put your brain in a chicken last Monday
     Eb
He's singing your songs and makin' lots of money
      F7                                       Bb   F7
And I got him signed to a tenyear recording contract

[Verse 4]
     Bb
Now, friends,
if you see me walkin' down the street
         Eb
Remember what you see ain't necessarily me
       F7
And if I try to hold you up,
                Bb  F7
don't pay me no mind
                 Bb
But when you got ten bucks that you can blow
    Eb
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken show
     F7
He's doin' fairs and concert dates all up and down the line

[Chorus]
Bb                  Eb
  I said, Stick 'em up everybody,
I'm robbin' this place
        Bb
Drop all  of your money in my guitar case
      Eb                                          F7
Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door
    Bb
A lady said, Why, you're Johnny Cash
        Eb
I said, No ma'am,
I'm the Manhattan Flash
      F7                                 Bb
And I am the best bank robber in New York

[Outro]
F7
  Well, I don't pay any income tax
You don't pay tax on money you steal
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken show

[Fade Out]
