ron parks – lonesome whistle lyrics
i was ridin’ number nine
headin’ south bound to carolina
when i heard that lonesome whistle blow
got in trouble, i had to run
left my gal an’ left my home
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
just a kid, actin’ smart
went and broke my darling’s heart
i guess i was too young to know
they took me off the georgia train
locked me to a ball and chain
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
all alone, i bear the shame
i’m just a number, not a name
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
and all i do is sit an’ cry
till that evenin’ train goes by
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
well, i’m locked here in this cell
till my body’s just a sh-ll
an’ my hair turns whiter than snow
i’ll never see that gal of mine
i’m stuck in georgia doin’ time
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
well, i’m locked here in this cell
till my body’s just a sh-ll
my hair turns white as the snow
i’ll never see that gal of mine
i’m stuck in georgia, doin’ time
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
i hear that lonesome whistle blow
