John Rich's Songwriting Tips #27

Respect those who came before you. I showed my respect for Johnny Cash by writing a song that had not shit to do with the Man in Black, yet bore his name as a title. He was honored, or he would have been. Someday, people (maybe you?) will show their appreciation for the roads I paved by sending me royalties from any anti-bankerman songs, treacly love ballads that mention forever, or pro-cowboy riding anthems. And from the baby-faced baller to you, thanks!
