I hear the tra
in a comin'
It's rollin' '
round the bend
,
And I ain't se
en the sunshin
e,
Since, I don't
know when,
I'm stuck in F
olsom Prison,
And time keeps
draggin' on,
But that train
keeps a-rolli
n',
On down to San
Antone.
When I was jus
t a baby,
My Mama told m
e, "Son,
Always be a go
od boy,
Don't ever pla
y 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.
[Solo]

I bet there's
rich folks eat
in',
In a fancy din
ing car,
They're probab
ly drinkin' co
ffee,
And smokin' bi
g cigars,
But I know I h
ad 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 railro
ad train was m
ine,
I bet I'd move
out over a li
ttle,
Farther down t
he 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
away.
