Intro:
| | | | |
I hear the tra
in a-comin';
It's rollin' 'round the bend,
And I ain't seen the sunshine since
I don't know when.
I'm stuck at F
olsom Prison
And time keeps
draggin' on,
But that train
keeps rollin'
On down to San
An-tone.
When I was jus
t a baby,
My momma told me, "Son,
always be a good;
Don't ever play with guns."
But I shot a m
an in Reno
Just to watch
him die.
When I hear th
at whistle blo
win'
I hang my head
and cry.
I bet there's
rich folks eat
in'
From a fancy dining car.
They're prob'ly drinkin' coffee
and smokin' big cigars.
Well, I know I
had it comin'
,
I know I can't
be free.
But those peop
le keep a-movi
n'
And that's wha
t tortures me.
Well, if they
freed me from
this prison,
If that railroad train was mine,
I bet I'd move it on
A little farther down the line,
Far from Folso
m Prison,
That's where I
want to stay.
And I'd let th
at lonesome wh
istle
Blow my blues
a-way.
