Su persona, su vida, su lucha por la superación personal y colectiva, su compromiso social,.. su capacidad para la alegría desde el dolor que hace sufrir al tiempo fortalece de verdad,..¿Cómo no admirarlos si al tiempo nos ayudan?
Si tienes interés en esta conexión y el sentido por el que Jonny Cash versiona de manera que impresiona la canción de Bruce Springsteen "Highway Patrolman ", te la recomiendo
Si has leído alguna biografía de Jonny Cash o me la puedes recomendar... Mejor si fuera una autobiografis, si es que la hizo, ..Ojalá que la hubiera hecho, como Bruce. Yo he leído la autobiografía de Bruce Springsteen y te la recomiendo

Now [Well] I taught the weeping willow how to cry,
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River.
Then [And] I'm gonna sit right here until I die.
I met her accidentally in St. Paul (Minnesota).
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl.
Then I heard my dream was back Downstream cavortin' in Davenport,
And I followed you, Big River, when you called.
Then you took me to St. Louis later on (down the river).
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone.
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block.
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone.
Well [Then], I pulled into Natchez, [the] next day down the river
But there wasn't much there to make the rounders stay very long.
When I left it was rainin' so nobody saw me cry.
Big river, why she doin' me this way?
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on.
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans.
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf.
She loves you, Big River, more than me.
