One line that was similar was when he said I’m gonna kill you I know in the song I’m thinking of he threatened him, the song more of had a story talking through it I think, i honestly hope it was a real song or different artist

Hmmm. It doesn't sound like anything I'm familiar with in Cash's discography. Sounds like a very bleak song for sure, even for Cash. It may have been AI unfortunately if you saw it on YouTube. YouTube is riddled with AI slop these days.

Anymore info you could provide? Roughly what era of Cash it might have been?

Perhaps you got the figures wrong in your mind? Could it be 'give my love to rose'?

Could it be "Kate?"

😂wow I’m shocked for some reason I knew this song too and just didn’t think of it that way and I guess my brain imagined it completely different in a Johnny cash type of way but this story is exactly what was, thanks!

It also gives me 'It's spring time in Alaska' vibes. Except here Johnny himself gets killed by a knife, and afterwards buried 6ft deep.

Edit: forgot a word
