colm r. mcguinness - folsom prison blues lyrics

Loading...

[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 blowin’, i hang my head and cry

[verse 3]
i bet there’s rich folks eatin’ 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 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 the line
far from folsom prison, that’s where i want to stay
and i’d let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
