Folsom Prison Blues

Johnny Cash

     G 
1.I hear the train a comin' it's rollin' 'round the bent
                                      G7 
  and I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
        C                                           G 
  I'm stuck at Folsom prison and time keeps drogin' on
             D                                     G 
  but that train keeps rollin' on down to San Antone.
2.When I was just a baby my mama told me son
  always be a good boy don't ever play with gun
  but I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
  when I hear that whistle blows I hang my head and cry.
3.I bet there's rich folks eatin' from a fancy dinning car
  they're prob'ly drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars
  well I know I had it comin' I know I can't be free
  but those people keep a movin' and that's what torlures me.
4.Well if they freed me from this prison if this railroad train was mine
  I bet I'd movin' over a little farther down the line
  far from Folsom prison that's where I want to stay
  and I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away.
