charley pride - folsom prison blues lyrics
i hear the 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
[ guitar ]
i bet there’s rich folks eatin’ in a fancy dining car
they’re prob’ly drinking coffee and smoking big cigars
but 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
but 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’ll let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
