Johnny Cash døde den 12. september 2003. Månederne før sin død indspillede han nyt materiale sammen med producenten Rick Rubin. Albummet \"American V: A hundred highways\" indeholder sange skrevet af sangskrivere som Hank Williams, Rod McKuen, Bruce Springsteen, Don Gibson m.fl. Derudover indeholder albummet to sange skrevet af Cash selv, hvoraf sangen \"Like the 309\" var den sidste sang, han skrev og indspillede.

\"I think that 'American V' may be my favorite of all the albums in the American series. It's different from all the others, it has a much different character. I think that this is as strong an album as Johnny ever made. These songs are Johnny's final statement. They are the truest reflection of music that was central to his life at the time. This is the music Johnny wanted us to hear\". - Rick Rubin
