keb mo - 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
when i hear that whistle blowing i hang my head and cry..
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 it all 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…..
