I hear that train a comin', it's rollin' round the
bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know
when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, and time keeps
draggin' on
But that train keeps a rollin' on down to San
Antone.
When I was just a baby my mama told me son
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head
and cry.
--- Instrumental ---
I bet there's rich folks eatin' in some fancy
dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big
cigars
Well, I know I had it comin', I know I can't be
free
But those people keep a movin' and that's what
tortures me.
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 Folsom Prison, that's where I want to
stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues
away...
