Johnny Cash/Merle Travis/Tennessee Ernie Ford - I'd Be a Legend In My Time Lyrics

If heartaches brought fame in love's crazy game
I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statues for tears and regrets
I'd be a legend in my time

But they don't give awards and there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim then everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend a living in my time


But they don't give awards...
I'd be a legend in my time
