Johnny cash sing it pretty sue lyrics

So you gave up all between us for a glamorous carear 



And with all your talent you should be the big star of the year 



Then you'll be public property so I release my claim to you 



Go on and give 'em all you've got sing it pretty Sue 



I can't take just part of you and give the world a half 



So Smile for all the papers and give 'em autographs 



Go on to all the cities so your public can see you 



But I'll watch on television so sing it pretty Sue 



[ guitar ] 



I hope you'll soon be on the top of every hitparade 



I'll try to be excited bout the progress that you've made 



I'll collect your pictures like any fan would do 



And I'll buy all your records so sing it pretty Sue 



But I won't ever tell a soul that we have ever met 



I'll just be one of millions who'll give the praise you get 



And maybe every year or so I'll drop a card to you 



To tell you I'm still listening so sing it pretty Sue
