"I Walk the Line" is the eighteenth album by country singer Johnny Cash, released on Columbia Records in 1964 (see 1964 in music). Aside from several new versions of previously recorded Cash songs, the album contains several tracks which hadn't been performed by Cash until then; two of the latter would go on to become relatively successful singles.
