Hank Williams (i Heard That) Lonesome Whistle Lyrics

I was ridin' Number Nine, 

Headin' south from Caroline. 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow. 

Got in trouble, had to roam, 

Left my gal an' left my home. 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow. 

Just a kid, actin' smart, 

I went and broke my darling's heart, 

I guess I was too young to know. 

They took me off the Georgia Main, 

Locked me to a ball and chain. 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow. 



All alone I bear the shame, 

I'm a number, not a name. 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow. 

All I do is set [sic] an' cry

When the evenin' train goes by. 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow. 



I'll be locked here in this cell

Till my body's just a shell

An' my hair turns whiter than snow. 

I'll never see that gal of mine. 

Lord, I'm in Georgia doin' time. 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
