Folsom Prison Blues

[Verse]
I hear that train a coming it's coming around the bend
I ain't seen the sunshine since i don't know when
I'm locked in folsom prison and time keeps dragging on
And i hear that train a rolling 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 lonesome whistle i hang my head and i cry
I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big cigars
Well i know i had it coming i know i can't be free
But i hear that train a rolling that's what tortures me
If they freed me from this prison if that railroad train was mine
I bet i'd move it over a little farther down the line
Far from folsom prison that's where i long to be
And let that train keep a rolling and roll my blues away...
