E
I hear the train a comin' It's rollin' 'round the bend
A
And I ain't seen the sunshine Since, I don't know when
E
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison And time keeps draggin' on
B7 A 1 strum E
But that train keeps a-rollin' On down to San Antone
E
When I was just a baby My Mama told me, "Son
A
Always be a good boy Don't ever play with guns E
But I shot a man in Reno Just to watch him die
B7 A 1strum E
When I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry
E
I bet there's rich folks eatin' In a fancy dining car
A
They're probably drinkin' coffee And smokin' big cigars
E
But I know I had it comin' I know I can't be free
B7 A 1strum E
But those people keep a-movin' And that's what tortures me
E
Well, if they freed me from this prison If that railroad train was mine
A
I bet I'd move it on a little Farther down the line
E
Far from Folsom Prison That's where I want to stay
B7 A 1strum E
And I'd let that lonesome whistle Blow my blues away
