"There [the Queen] sat on the floor, and she looked up at me and said, 'Johnny Cash, you’re like a thorn tree in a whirlwind,'" the musician recalled in a 2002 interview with broadcasterLarry King. "I woke up and thought, 'What could a dream like this mean?' I forgot about it for two or three years, but it kept haunting me. I kept thinking about how vivid it was. I thought maybe it was biblical."
"It took me nine months to write it,” he explained in an interview, per Far Out. "I wrote verse after verse, probably 25 or 30 verses, before I was satisfied with the verses I wanted to use in the song. It’s the first time I’ve ever overwritten a song, but I felt like it was necessary."
The track enjoyed a considerable amount of commercial success, placing at No. 19 on the Official Physical Singles Chart in the U.K. The album reached No. 2 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.
