conway twitty - 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 anton.
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 every time i hear that whistle
i hang my head and cry.
— instrumental—
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 people 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 bet i’d move just a little further
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…
