Folsom Prison Blues Lyrics by Small Town Titans

0

[Verse 1]
I hear the train a comin', it's rolling '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
[Verse 2]
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 blowing, I hang my head and cry
[Verse 3]
I bet there's rich folks eating from a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars
Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
But those people keep a-movin'
And that's what tortures me
[Verse 4]
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 thе line
Far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay
And I'd lеt that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
