Guess the Song Lyric

Not Willie Nelson's Spirit either. Your original guess was correct in song name, but not in the artist. The most famous version of the song is by a country super-group that includes both your guesses of Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, and the name of that group was influenced by the song-name. (Bonus points if you name that group) Having said that, they did not write the song nor were they the other man who first recorded it on his 1979 album of which this song is the title-track.
 
Nessuno:
Johnny Cash with Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson & Waylon Jennings? (the Group is "The Highwaymen"?).

Your song was Through The Barricades by Spandau Ballet.

All the great explorers
Are now in granite laid,
Under white sheets
for the great unveiling
At the big parade.
 
Big City Life - Mattafix


Girl, you really got me goin'
You got me so I don't know what I'm doin'
Yeah, you really got me now
You got me so I can't sleep at night
 
Kinks-You Really Got Me

Take me down to the river bend
Take me down to the fighting end
Wash the poison from of my skin
Show me how to be whole again
 
Castle Of Glass - Linkin Park

I don't know why I love her like I do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
I want to know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
 
Talking Heads - Take me to the river

Child-like
No one understands
Jack knife
In your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocence is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears
 
The Beatles - hey bulldog


You'll go and I’ll be okay,
I can dream the rest away.
Its just a little touch of fate, it will be okay.
It sure takes its precious time, but it’s got rights and so have I.
 
Neopolitan Dreams - Lisa Mitchell

I'm supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composure
Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders I ain't never supposed to show it, my crew ain't supposed to know it
Even if it means goin' toe to toe with a Benzino it don't matter
I'd never drag them in battles that I can handle unless I absolutely have to
 
Like Toy Soldiers by Eminem.


And he's fighting for Canada,
He's fighting for France,
He's fighting for the USA,
And he's fighting for the Russians,
And he's fighting for Japan,
And he thinks we'll put an end to war this way.

But without him,
How would Hitler have condemned them at Dachau?
Without him Caesar would have stood alone,
He's the one who gives his body
As a weapon of the war,
And without him all this killing can't go on.

You're gone and I gotta stay high
All the time to keep you off my mind
Oo oo, oo oo
High all the time to keep you off my mind
Oo oo, oo oo
Spend my days locked in a haze
Trying to forget you babe
I fall back down
I gotta stay high all my life
To forget I'm missing you
oo oo, oo oo
 
Oh no, next thing I know
they call up triple-O.
I'd rather die than owe
the hospital 'til I get old.
I get adrenaline
straight to the heart.
I feel like Uma Thurman
post-overdosing kickstart.
 
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow
Don't let the milk float ride your mind
You're so natural, religiously unkind
 
I need your answer before post.

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck...
It's tough, so tough
 
Thank you :blush:

Now:
"What shall we use
To fill the empty spaces
Where we used to talk?
How shall I fill
The final places?
How should I complete the wall"
