carl perkins - folsom prison blues lyrics

Loading...

well, i hear the train a coming
it’s rolling around the bend
i ain’t seen the sunshine
since i don’t know when

lord, i’m stuck in folsom prison
and time keeps dragging on
while that train keeps on rolling
on down to san antone

well, i bet there’s rich folks eating
in a fancy dining car
they’re probably drinking coffee
and smoking big cigars

lord, i know i had it coming
i know i just can not be free
but those people keep on moving
baby, that’s what tortures me

when i was a baby
my mama told me, “son”
said, “i want you to be a good boy
i don’t want you to play with guns”

but i shot a man in reno
i shot him just to watch him die
lord, he died
yes, he died
and that train keeps on rolling
i hang my lonesome head and cry
well, if they freed me from this prison
if that railroad train was mine
oh, i’d movе it on
just a little bit further down the linе

far from folsom prison
that’s where i want to stay
and i’d let that lonesome whistle
blow my lonesome blues away
