abstract	%22A Boy Named Sue%22 is a song written by Shel Silverstein that was made popular by Johnny Cash. Cash was at the height of his popularity when he recorded the song live at California's San Quentin State Prison at a concert on February 24, 1969. The concert was filmed by Granada Television for later television broadcast; Carl Perkins played guitar on the performance. The audio of the concert was later released on Cash's At San Quentin album.

The track also topped the Billboard Hot Country Songs and Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks charts that same year and was certified Gold on August 14, 1969, by the RIAA.Shel Silverstein's recording was released the same year as %22Boy Named Sue%22, a single to the album Boy Named Sue (and His Other Country Songs), produced by Chet Atkins and Felton Jarvis.
