[Chorus:]
Ira Hayes
Ira Hayes
Call him drunken Ira Hayes
He won't answer anymore
Not the whiskey drinking Indian
Or the marine that went to war

Linda Howard I met Ira Hayes when I was 12 years in December, 1954. I was living in Essex, CA (pop. 20) which is located 40 miles west of Needles, on Route 66. My father worked for the California Highways. My father was drinking at the bar when Ira Hayes came in. People started crowding around him and calling him a hero. My father rushed home to get me and my siblings to meet Ira. He said this is a once in a life-time experience and you will never have this chance again (how prophetic). When we approached him and my father said he wanted his kids to meet him,. His back was to us. He slowly turned on his stool and offered his hand. He did not say anything. I will never forget his face and eyes. He was obviously drunk but the pain and sorrow in his eyes was overwhelming and has haunted me all my life. He was uncomfortable with all the attention and I felt ashamed in intruding upon him and, somehow I knew he would not live very long, but I felt so fortunate to have met him. When my father came home, one day in January (one month later) and informed us that Ira has died from alcohol poisoning, I cried so hard and still do when I read or watch a movie about him.

As a youth, my father met Ira Hayes. He apparently worked on and off for my g-grandfather. He was described as hard working very nice guy. Unfortunately, war and lack of treatments for U.S. veterans lacked back then as (to a point) they still lack today. Although, he may of had a drinking problem... It was not whom he was. He deserves respect, love and honor. I'm to have words (a family oath of sorts) with anyone desrespecting Ira Hayes or any other war hero. Thank you for your service. All branches past and present.

This song was not written by Johnny Cash. It was written by Native Indian: Peter La Farge who recorded his own version and was friends with Johnny in the West village folk music scene and Cash and LaFarge were also alcohol, drug pals. If it weren't for Johnny recording the song, in 1964--it would be unknown, for though Peter recorded it, Johnny was the one with distribution. Peter died in 1965, a drug overdose/stroke, sadly, Thorazine, sleeping pills, provided by--Johnny Cash is what did Peter in. Peter was 34.

He later served in our Police Department, making Chief, then after retirement, went on to serve 20 more years in Department of Labor. He told stories of Ira Hayes. He was good friends with him. They went on liberties together and shared rides to leaves together. He always talked about Ira as a very great man! He said it was a shame what happened after he returned,, because what should be remembered is the great Patriot he was!❤💔💙❤ I hope they reconnected in heaven March 3 of this year, when my father in law left this earth 4 days after his 100'th Birthday.

One of the big reasons I like Johnny Cash, even though he died when I was 2 or 3, is that he always spoke out for those who didn’t have a voice and deserved one. Prisoners whose conditions were horrid, soldiers fighting for a government that didn’t care about them, and Native Americans. Unfortunately, he never really brought up the plight of African Americans despite being at the height of his popularity during the civil rights movement. That’s definitely understandable though as his audience was primarily white southerners, so it basically would have been career suicide to pick a side in the movement. Great song and sung by a great storyteller.

Youre wrong. Listen to the ballad of John Henry.

@mud4309 4 года назад

Thats cuz during the civil rights movement people were already singing for the rights of African Americans. Were they marginalized and had a relatively smaller voice? Yeah but it was slowly growing and becoming more powerful. But prisoners and Natives and soldiers? They were just forgotten. He was the only voice they had before Johnny

You can look out your window and see a veteran homeless talking to himself drowning in alcohol while people pass him by would never know what this person did so we can have the freedoms today. Just like the great Ira there are so many that sacrifice and get walk passed like they was nothing. Our country heroes a damn shame.

When I was younger this song always made me cry. Now that I'm older it fills me with anger; anger at those who let heroes like Ira Hayes and other Vets suffer like this. My Great Grand Father James Eldon Blades fought in WW2, and my Uncle as a Navy Sailor during Korea, I think? And I know neither ever got their due diligence.

@stankovicaleksandar8169 2 года назад

I heard this song for the first time at the age of eleven ... and somehow deep down I felt the "gratitude" that the US government and everyone else will show to their veterans in the decades to come.
