Tales from the Tour Bus: Johnny Paycheck Shoots a Guy

Mike Judge Presents: Tales From the Tour Bus
Season 1, Episode 1
Johnny Paycheck, 5 of 6
Aired on Cinemax: 2017.09.22
In addition to selling 40 million records and producing chart-topping hits like “She’s All I Got” and “Take This Job and Shove It,” country music outlaw Johnny Paycheck became notorious for living the part. He was known for his music, grand theft auto, drug binges and stints in jail. At the height of Paycheck’s fame, he shot a man over a turtle soup recipe, which led to a high-profile trial, a prison sentence and one of his greatest hits, “Old Violin.”

"House of Cash" and "house of cash is a misnomer."

[@demiseisdue]

[@jcarry5214]

That blew my hear right back, unreal.

[@baxill23]

Underrated line.

[@MrSpeed-lt8gr]

Down south , “coz the son of a bitch had it comin’” is a valid defense.

[@dustinprewitt]

Johnny Cash could have also said "sorry, but your paycheck just bounced"

[@Mr.NoName1972]

Johnny Paycheck looked like a cross between Charles Manson and Yosemite Sam.

[@chubbspeterson6161]

Great show. They need to bring back.

[@jcarry5214]

So. What I gather from this mainly is that Johnny Cash, on top of everything else, was a rascally genius.

[@TheOfficialCaseMade]

I am from Lynchburg, about 10 miles from where this shooting happened. My uncle actually brought a guitar to him while he was in jail and had it autographed.
Unfortunately my uncle was a bit of a partier like Johnny was and pawned it before I could get it.

[@dw8840]

Between David Allan Coe and Johnny Paycheck, I don't know which one is more badass

[@CarolineMartin]

We need a DA Coe edition of this show

[@leighfoulkes7297]

"badass"?! More like crazy ass!

[@johnfrombrm]

More like DUMBASS

[@zacharymitchell]

Definitely paycheck, coe was a great storyteller

[@user-wm1js2no9x]

I was playing drums for DAVID ALLAN COE from 89-1994 We went into the OHIO STATE PRISON and did a show while JOHNNY PAYCHECK was incarcerated there, It was the first time D.A.C.& J.P. sang TAKE THIS JOB AÑD SHOVE IT together, D.A.C. wrote the song& J.P. had a hit with the song, it was quite an exspirerence

[@CAROLUSPRIMA]

Paycheck was also a good writer. In addition to many songs he recorded Paycheck also wrote hits for others including Apartment #9 by Tammy Wynette and Once You’ve Had the Best, written with and for George Jones.

[@colinlarson9656]

[@Diesel257]

Why is no one talking about that part?! 😂

[@johnwelch6490]

Leesburg, Ohio Favorite Son

[@JeffShafer-fp2og]

I always heard that this happened in Blanchester, but it was closer to Hillsboro?

[@FLStelth]

Johnny Paycheck seems like a long-lost brother of Charles Manson.

[@Diesel257]

Naw, Charlie's songs are terrible. 😂

[@redneckhippiefreak]

It's good to know that Butt Head finally found a job he could hold down at the age of46

[@Wootangtw]

Freaking funny

[@KC-cy3th]

The “pain” of a soft easy life. It’s that they, the people, don’t have purpose. Food is very very plentiful. 300 lbs poor people. That’s a great Country & economic system. Our poor have cell phones, $250 cable packages& big guts & butts. Many have those things & don’t work.

[@lionhearted9212]

Can we please get some on richard Pryor
