Johhny cash defines rock and roll. He toured with elvis, jerry lee lewis, waylon jennings. The great american heros who laid the building blocks for acd, the stones, the beatles, the eagles, kiss, coldplay, greenday, stoned sour, nickle back and every other rock band out there to play. This song epitimizes the love affair between john and june. They were both married previously. Johnny with three daughters and june with two. But their first marriages fell apart because of hte love affair between them. This song is about how she wants to love her man as much as june loved johhny. And she wants him to love her like johnny loved june. It was a forboding love. Almost romeo and juliet-esqe with out the poision. She wants this new love to be as deep and as passionate as the cash's. Don't we all want that though? Someone to love until times eternal clock runs out? Someone to walk through every burning ring of fire and to cross every line drawn? Hand in hand. Heart in heart. That's what "johnny and june" means.
