[C] [F]
I hear the train a coming, it's rolling around the bend,
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when,
[Bb] Lord I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, And time keeps dragging [F] on,
But [C] that train keeps a rolling on down to San [F] Antone.
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 blowing, I hang my [F] head.

[F]
I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car,
They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big [Bb] cigars,
Well I know I had it coming, I know I [F] can't be free,
[B] But [C] those people keep a moving, and that's what they're to [F] do.
[Bb]
[F]
[C]
[F] Well if they freed me from this prison, If that railroad train wasn't mine,
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line,
[Bb] Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want [F] to stay,
And [C] I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [F] away.
