this is one of the songs that Cash would sing to put himself at the level of the criminals and also to give a lesson at the end of the song... This performance was live in front of prisoners at Folsom Prison. Cash wrote folsom prison himself but this one was written by someone else who had reworked the traditional song called Little Sadie. Cash really believed that people can change and even harden felons deserve to be treated as fellow brothers in humanity. We are all more than the worse things we have done.

Musicology is so interesting. While this is the most popular version of this song, it is actually a cover. There had been a previous popular version by Roy Hogshead that Johnny doubtless heard as a youth. The song itself is a reworking of the American folk ballad "Little Sadie", one of many so-called "murder ballads" from Appalachia and the South and the result of cross-pollination between African folk music and Anglo folk ballads. It is from music in these traditions that almost all modern popular music in the US and even the world emerged

back in the day cocaine was available in drinkable forms...that's how Coca-Cola started. There was cocaine in Coca Cola until at least 1904. This song is set in the late Old West, where drinkable cocaine syrup "patent medicines" would have been common.

It was also injectable; as in Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. His "seven percent solution" is what he uses as 7% cocaine & 93% saline from time to time. In fact, Dr. Sigmund Freud used it quite a lot back in the day (being the very early 1900's). Laudanum, opium & heroin would also have been easily available OTC.

Just a bit of history, cocaine was originally an ingredient in Coca-Cola in the 1800's, so yes you can actually drink it in that form. But, I'm pretty sure he was using slang, just meaning a hit or snort.

you might say that crowd was a real "captive" audience 🤣😂 Johnny Cash performed live at San Quentin prison (north of San Francisco) in 1969 and the concert was released as an album and it was a big hit. I can't believe I rolled into the San Quentin parking lot and asked if they had a gift shop because I confused the active San Quentin prison with the now empty Alcatraz prison. Alcatraz prison is on an island in the middle of the Bay and it's open to tourists but SAN QUENTIN ISN'T OPEN TO TOURISTS......UNLESS THE TOURISTS ARE COMING IN ONE WAY. Somebody's car at San Quentin had Folsom Prison written around their license plate so apparently the legend of Johnny Cash's 1969 performance there is still remembered.

Well, the crowd going crazy is the prisoners in Folsom prison. And the lyrics in the recorded version are actually about San Quentin pen. But obviously you would modify it in that situation and they loved him. There is a whole live album that he recorded there and guess what? He has a whole other live album that he recorded at San quentin!

This version was written by Roy Hogsed in the early 40s, but the song dates back decades prior with different lyrics and arrangements. Cash recorded it on a studio album as Transfusion Blues without the references to cocaine, but decided to do the Hogsed version for Folsom. A shot is probably referring to a drink since the song was written before syringes were used for cocaine.

Although Cash cultivated a romantic outlaw image, he never served a prison sentence. Despite landing in jail seven times for misdemeanors, he stayed only one night on each stay. On May 11, 1965, he was arrested in Starkville, Mississippi, for trespassing late at night onto private property to pick flowers.

He's talking about injecting cocaine with a needle back in the day cocaine was of a high enough purity that it could be "shot up" similar to heroin or meth intravenous use of cocaine was actually the most popular method of cocaine use from the late 1700s all the way up to the 1980 because up to that point cocaine couldn't be smoked which is the fastest and most effective way to take any drug because it's absorbed through the lungs into the blood stream through the heart and directly to the brain all in less than 1sec so the onset of the drugs effects are nearly instantaneous as apposed to intravenous which has to to pass through the circulatory system including the liver which can to between 30secs to 2 minutes snorting or ingesting can take as long as 15min before you begin to feel any effects. The effectiveness of the respiratory system to absorb drugs is what made the crack cocaine so dangerous and addictive same as cigarettes after the invention of crack or free base cocaine it's use intravenously fell out of popularity though it is still used today it very rare also Hiv/aids and the heroin epidemic of the late 60s through the 70s which stigmatized the use of needles contributed to it decline as well.

Stevie Ray Vaughan was fond of drinking whiskey with cocaine in it. Pretty much every early video of Stevie playing music, he's jacked up on cocaine mixed with whiskey. Over the years, it almost destroyed his stomach and health (both physical & mental), until he cleaned up his act and went into "Man In Black" mode with his clothes and life shortly before dying in the helicopter crash.
