[N] [D]
Well, I woke up this morning, it was drizzling rain
Round the curve called a passenger train Heard somebody yodeling and a hobo moan
Jimmy, he dead, he been a [Dm] long time gone Been a long time [G] gone
He been a long time [D] gone
If you wanna get to heaven, gotta [Dm] D.I.E. [D] You gotta put on your coat and T.I.E.
You wanna get the rabbit out the [Dm] L.O [D].G. You gotta make a commotion like a D.O.G.
Like a D.O [G].G.
Yeah, like a D.O [D].G.
Well, I got a good woman, what's the matter with me?
What makes me wanna love [Dm] every woman I see?
I was traveling when I [D] met her, now I'm traveling again
And every woman she see look like a place I came in
Like a place I [G] came in
Like a place I came [D]
in
Well, I got my name painted on my shirt I ain't no ordinary dude, I don't have to work
[Dm] Don't have to [G] work
I don't have to [D] work
Well, that hot old summer sun Make you [G] pay for your next [D] trip
So you best be out on the creek bank, laying in the [A] shade
[D] Chewing on a hickory twig Pass that [G] bottle, I'll have me a [D] swig
I ain't got a lot, but [A] I damn sure [D] got me
I'm just a [G] little pig in a country state of [D]
mind
Catching these fish like they're going out of style
Drinking that homemade
[A] wine
If [D] the sun don't come up tomorrow
Well, [G] people, I've had a good [D] time
I'm just a little pig in [A] a country state of [D] mind
[B]
[E]
Well, I hear the train a-coming It's rolling around the bend
I ain't seen the sun shine since I don't know when
Well, [A] I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, time to drag it [E] on
Hey, when I [B] hear that whistle blowin' On down to San [E]
Ando
Well, when I went out, my mama told me a song
Said, I wish I'd be a good boy, don't you?
Had to play with guns, but I [A] shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
[E]
When I [B] hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head [E]
and cry
Well, I bet this rich folk's eating on pants, diet and cocks
They're probably drinking whiskey and smoking [Em] them big cigars
But I know [A] I had it coming, and I know I can be [E] free
Hey, when I hear [B] that whistle blowin' Lord, it torches [E] me
Well, if they'd free me from that prison If that railroad was mine
I bet I'd move it over a little [Em] further on down the line
[A] Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to [E] stay
I'll let [B] that lonesome whistle blow my blues [E] away
Yeah, I'll [D] let that lonesome [B] whistle [Em] blow my [G] blues away
Well, I woke up this morning, it was drizzling rain
