No, not at all. He didn't have any part of writing it. It was co-written by June Carter and Merle Kilgore. in fact, Cash didn't even record it right away. He gave about six months for June's sister, Anita, to try to make a hit out of the song. When she failed to get a hit single, he sang it his way, with the mariachi trumpets.

OF COURSE HE DID!

At the end of his career he mostly did covers, but his early hits like Fulsome Prison Blues, Walk the Line, etc. were original pieces.

It's actually not known, he put out roughly 800+ but he probably made a lot more that he didn't put into an album. --Its a shame I have to correct other people's sentences.--
