A sheet of Johnny Cash handwritten working lyrics for the song "We Remember The King. " The lyrics written about Elvis Presley, read in part, "As the swift bird flies o'er the mountains / How we wish we were there at it's wing / Closer by far to a friend we have lost / We remember the king." At the conclusion, Cash adds a note for his assistant in pencil that reads, "Irene, please type these lyrics for me, J." Cash wrote this song for the 1986 project "Class of '55: Memphis Rock & Roll Homecoming," which featured Cash along with Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison and Jerry Lee Lewis. 11 by 8 1/2 inches Categories: Johnny Cash
