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 in Folsom Prison,

And time keeps draggin  on,

But that train keeps arollin ,

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 folks eatin ,

In a fancy dining car,

They re probably drinkin  coffee,

And smokin  big cigars,

But 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 out 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.
