Lyrics Flushed from the Bathroom of Your Heart - Live at Folsom State Prison, Folsom, CA (2nd Show) - January 1968 - Johnny Cash

From the backdoor of your life you swept me out dear
In the bread line of your dreams I lost my place
At the table of your love I got the brush off
At the Indianapolis of your heart I lost the race

I've been washed down the sink of your conscience
In the theater of your love I lost my part
And you say you've got me out of your system
I've been flushed from the bathroom of your heart

In the garbage disposal of you dreams I've been ground up dear
In the river of your plans I'm up the creek
Up the elevator of your future I've been shafted
On your calendar of events I'm last week

I've been washed down the sink of your conscience
In the theater of your love I lost my part
(Pretty song surely)
And you say you've got me out of your system (ex lives)
I've been flushed from the bathroom of your heart

(My lips is thank you very much
June you 'bout ready to come out and do a song with me
Right after this and we wanna do a special and dedicated to Joe Bean
Is he Joe here today?
Joe was here last year
See a lot of faces I saw last year
How you doin'?
Good to see you all
Hell of a land good to see you in)

(Well, they are hanging Joe Bean this morning
For killing a man in Arkansas
Funny thing about it, Joe Bean
Never heard of the man
In fact, Joe Bean has never has been to Arkansas
On top of that today is Joe Bean's twentieth birthday)
(I didn't hear you all)
(What to
What you are not on record what'd you say?)
(How dare you expect that?)
(Hey Joe Bean)
