- Folsom Prison Blues Lyrics

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..
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
now when I hear that whistle,I hang my head and cry..
I bet there's rich folks eating in 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 fat cats keep a movin'
and that's what tortures me...

Well if they'd free me from this prison,
if that railroad train was mine
I betyu I could move a little further down the line
far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay
and just let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away.....
