Sound of Laughter Lyrics

The song Sound of Laughter is performed by Johnny Cash in the album named Love, God, Murder in the year 2000 .



I stood in there in the shadows
As they went strolling by
Now she ain't my girl no longer
There's no reason I should cry

But I knew there went my future
And I couldn't stop the tears
And the sound of Laughter
Ringing in my Ears

I spent every dime I had on her
And when it was gone
She said hun, it's sure been fun
But its time you moved along

So I stood there in the shadows
And I had my .44
I could hear her mocking laughter
But she won't laugh anymore

Now I'm down here in the gaolhouse
And I know what brought me here
It was the Sound of Laughter
Ringing in my Ears

Well I guess I should have left this town
And her far behind
For the way that she made fun of me
Keeps running through my mind

Well the jury showed no mercy
And I never asked for none
Cause I know I've got it coming
I'm not proud of what I've done

But down here in this darkness
More and more I seem to hear
The sound of laughter
Ringing in my ears

I hear the Sound of Laughter
Ringing in my Ear
