He has songs about&nbsp;<a href="https://genius.com/Johnny-cash-route-no-1-box-144-lyrics" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">soldiers killed in Vietnam</a>, songs about&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsu5Jeowe6E" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dying cowboys on the streets of Laredo</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://genius.com/Johnny-cash-i-hung-my-head-lyrics" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">about tragic rifle accidents</a>,&nbsp;songs about salvation and damnation, songs about tragedy and war.
