[C] [F]
Yeah!
I hear the train a-comin'
It's rollin' around a bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since
I don't know [A] when
[Bb] I'm stuck in Folsom's prison
And time keeps [F] craggin' on
But [C] that train keeps a-rollin'
All down to San [F] Antone
Well, when I was just a baby
My mama told me, son
Always be a good boy
Don't ever play with guns
[Bb] But I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch [F] him die
[C] When I hear that whistle blowin'
I hang my [F] head and cry Yeah!
I would!
[Bb]
[F]
[B] [C]
[F]
Well, if they'd free me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
[Bb] Far from Folsom's prison
That's where I want [F] to stay
And
[Bb] [C] I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [F] away
[C] [F]
Yeah!
