johnny cash - at folsom prison- lyrics

Loading...

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 at folsom prison and time keeps draggin’ on
but that train keeps 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

i bet there’s rich folk eatin’ from a fancy dining car
they’re prob’ly drinkin’ coffee and smokin’ big cigars
well, 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

well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
i bet i’d move on over 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
