[F]
Oh, yeah!
It's so good to be playing Dick Buehler on the TV, ladies!
Hello, all my friends here in the Grand Roll Opera House!
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Very good, I'll be back.
I hear that train a-bendin', it's rollin' around the bend,
And I see the sunshine through.
Hello, Bill Walker!
And [Bb] a couple of bulls from prison, and time keeps [F] draggin' on.
But [C] that train keeps rollin' on down to San [F] Antonio.
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.
And I wouldn't die.
[C] But I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my [F] head and cry.
The Tennessee Bulls!

Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine,
Bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line, [Bb] far from Folsom [F] Prison.
That's where I want to stay.
And [C] I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [F] away.
[C] Fa la la la la la [F] la.
