Like A Young Colt Lyrics - Johnny Cash

Like a young cold the country was now growing fast 

Passenger trains in the east were traveling a hundred miles an hour 

People in the country could buy clothes by mail order 

And get 'em back within two weeks 

After twenty years or more the South 

Was still mending its wounds from the civil war 

But with all the country's problems 

The union was solid 

Red American novelists and poets 

Were coming into their own 

People were expressing their love 

For America in song and in poem
