Nasty Dan

There’s a chance you might not know this one either.

No, I don't think I was aware of that one, either. Clearly, I should ask more about odd songs Johnny Cash might have sung.

I need to go look it up.

Is this lyric by Shel Silverstein? I know Cash covered "Rosalie's Good Eats Cafe"...

I find Silverstein wrote DIRTY Dan and NASTY Nan but Not "Nasty Dan" This seems to be a Cash original lyric.

Now that my kids are in their 20s I miss the Muppets songs The lyrics and parody songs compiled on the "best of" VHS tapes were more entertaining, once upon a time, than much of what I heard on the radio.

Silverstein and Cash collaborated often, but I think this one's by Jeff Moss.
