This song was written by Sonnier and Kermit Goell in 78. Firstly recorded by Johnny Cash on the " Gone girl " 's album (.Sonnier played accordion on the song )
Actually Mon Ami------"Cush" derives from the "War of Northern Aggression" (1861-1865) when Southern troops didnt have enough to eat and put together whatever they could find, "boil it down", and eat it. "Cayenne" pepper, found in most food outlets is "hotter than Hell"------put the two together and you have breakfast In today's world it is also a great weight loss supplement in tablet form.

Wasn't it first performed by Emmylou Harris? Ellis Hotel was released in 1975 but for some reasons, the song was only released as a bonus track to the album in 2004.
