Johnny Cash - Five Feet High And Rising [1959]

"Five Feet High and Rising" is a song written and originally recorded by Johnny Cash.
The song was recorded by Cash on March 12, 1959 for his third Columbia album and released as a single on July 6, 1959, with "I Got Stripes" (another song from the same recording session) on the opposite side.
The song is a first person account of the 1937 Mississippi flood that Cash, then aged four years and 11 months, endured with his family. They had to leave their home and flee.
The song provided the inspiration for the name of De La Soul's debut album "Three Feet High and Rising" and is sampled in the song "The Magic Number."
