G I hear the train a coming it's rolling round the bend G7 and I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when CG I'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' on D7G But that train keeps rollin' on down to San Antone
G When I was just a baby my Mama told me 'Son G7 always be a good boy; don't you ever play with guns. CG But I shot the man in Reno, just to watch him die D7G when I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry
G I hear the train a coming it's rolling round the bend G7 And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when CG I'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time keeps dragging on D7G But that train keeps rolling on down to San Antone
G When I was just a baby my mama told me Son G7 Always be a good boy don't ever play with guns CG But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die D7G When I hear that whistle blowing I hang my head and cry
G I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car G7 They're probably drinking coffee and smoking big cigars CG But I know I had it coming I know I can't be free D7G But those people keep a moving and that's what tortures me
G Well if they freed me from this prison if that railroad train was mine G7 I bet I'd move on over a little farther down the line CG Far from Folsom Prison that's where I want to stay D7G And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
