Verse 1
FI hear the train a comin'
It's rollin' round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when
BbI'm stuck at Folsom Prison
FAnd time keeps draggin' on
CBut that train keeps a rollin'
FOn down to San Antone
Verse 2
FWhen I was just a baby
My mama told me son
Always be a good boy
Don't ever play with guns
BbBut I shot a man in Reno
FJust to watch him die
CWhen I hear that whistle blowin'
FI hang my head and cry

Verse 3
FI bet there's rich folk eatin'
In a fancy dining car
They're prob'ly drinkin' coffee
And smokin' big cigars
BbBut I know I had it comin'
FI know I can't be free
CBut those people keep a movin'
FAnd that's what tortures me

Verse 4
FWell if they freed me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move on a little
Farther down the line
BbFar from Folsom Prison
FThat's where I want to stay
CAnd I'd let that lonesome whistle
FBlow my blues away
