strawberry cake
johnny cash

capo : 2nd fret

intro : G

verse :
G D
in new york city just walking the street
G
ran out of money had nothing to eat
C
i stopped at the plaza , that fancy hotel
D
where you can check in if you’re well to do well . . .

G D
the first of july and a hundred and four
G
i stopped at the plaza’s front revolving door
C
i stepped in the door and went around for a ride
D
treatin’ myself to the cool air inside

G D
then i found myself in a chandeliered room
G
where people were dining and i hid in the gloom
C
my hunger pains hurt ’til i thought i would break
D G
when a waiter brought out a big strawberry cake

chorus :
G D G
oh that strawberry cake
C G
oh that strawberry cake
C G
out in california them berries were grown
C G
and into this city them berries were flown
D G
for making that strawberry cake

verse :
G D
then i thought of oxnard , just north of la
G
where i picked strawberries for many a day
C
hard work with no future for the harvest was done
D
and i headed eastward A – travelin’ by thumb

G D
and nobody wanted me here in this town
G
i felt like a stray dog they all kick around
C
them berries reminded me of my bad breaks
D G
i’m hungry and i want that strawberry cake

chorus :
G D G
i deserve that strawberry cake
C G
deserve that strawberry cake
C G
i ran and i grabbed it then out the side door
C G
into central park through the bushes i tore
D G
holdin’ my strawberry cake

verse :
G D
i look back behind me and what do i see
G
the chef and headwaiter and the maitre D
C
i had a nice helpin’ of cake as i ran
D
i gobble them berries as fast as i can

G D
they’re closin’ the gap as i slowed down to eat
G
but the cake brought a new surge of power to my feet
C
i hid in the bush when the lead i did take
D G
and i quietly finished my strawberry cake

chorus :
G D G
i ate all that strawberry cake
C G
that fine fancy strawberry cake
C G
someone at the plaza is without dessert
C G
but for the first time in days now my belly don’t hurt
D G
i’m full of strawberry cake

note : there are two versions i have seen johnny cash
playing this song live . on one he capoed at the
2nd fret and on another he capoed on the 3rd fret
but used the exact same chords for both .
