Interactive Johnny Cash Song Title Game
This weeks interactive game will focus on the music of Johnny Cash. Cash was loved by people of all ages and with varied tastes in music. Cash not only was capable of walking the line ("I Walk The Line"), but had the ability to cross over it in his appeal to the masses.
Rules of the game: take the last letter of the song posted before you and use that letter to come up with the first word of the song you are going to post, do not post twice consecutively (someone else must post inbetween your posts), and if we run out of one letter for songs then we will go on to the next letter until it is also used.
Be fast, be patient, but most of all enjoy the music of Johnny Cash and pay attention to his lyrics - he was an incredible song writer and poet.
This weeks game will begin with the song, "Apache Tears".
Our game starts with an S

I don't know, but I am obviously the monkey after my blunder. I would have to not only subtract the five points I thought I earned from that post, but I would be penalized an additional five points.
