I G hear the train a-comin'; it's rollin' 'round the bend,
An G d I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know G7 when,
I'm C stuck at Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' G on.
But that D7 train keeps a-rollin' on down to San An G tone.
G When I was just a baby, my momma told me, "Son,
Always be a good boy; don't G7 ever play with guns."
But I C shot a man in Reno, just to watch him G die.
Now every D7 time I hear that whistle,
I hang my head and G cry.
G I bet there's rich folk eatin'in a fancy dining car.
They're prob'ly drinkin' coffee and G7 smokin' big cigars,
Well I C know I had it comin', I know I can't be G free,
But those D7 people keep a-movin',
and that's what tortures G me.
Instrumental
G Well if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine,
I bet I'd move it all a little G7 further down the line,
C Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to G stay,
And I'd D7 let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a G way.
