Michigan City Howdy Do Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[VERSE]
[D]Well Johnson Van Dyke Grigsby was paroled in '89
[G]He never walked o[D]n a carpet never tasted dinner wine
[A]His old eyes were slowly fad[G]in' as he walked out of the gate
A[D]nd he breathed the fi[A]rst fr[D]ee air he'd breathed since 19-0-8

[CHORUS]
[G]Howdy do Michigan City you're sure pretty sight
[D]But I know there's bigger cities and more excitin' nights
[G]But I think your girls're pretty and I love your children too
[D]Michigan City Indiana howdy do Michigan City Indiana howdy do
[A]Michigan City Ind[D]iana howdy do

[VERSE]
[D]Filled with the joy of freedom he didn't know that he was old
[G]Cause time don't rea[D]lly matter when it's bubblin' in your soul
[A]Well I don't think he was bi[G]tter cause he sure had a smile
[D]And down the streets [A]of Michi[D]gan City he walked his first free miles

[CHORUS]
[G]Howdy do Michigan City you're sure pretty sight
[D]But I know there's bigger cities and more excitin' nights
[G]But I think your girls're pretty and I love your children too
[D]Michigan City Indiana howdy do Michigan City Indiana howdy do
[A]Michigan City Ind[D]iana howdy do
