[00:01.53] Folsom Prison Blues
[00:09.97] I hear the train a comin'
[00:12.40] It's rollin' round the bend
[00:15.03] I ain't seen the sunshine
[00:17.16] Since I don't know when.
[00:19.09] Well, I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
[00:22.22] And time keeps draggin' on
[00:25.34]
[00:28.53] But I see a train a movin'
[00:31.67] On down to San Antone
[00:34.92]
[00:38.55] Bet there's rich folks eatin'
[00:40.86] In some fancy dining car
[00:43.23] Probably drinkin' coffee
[00:45.42] And smokin' big cigars.
[00:47.42] Well, I know I had it comin'
[00:50.67] I know I can't be free
[00:53.87]
[00:56.93] But them people keep on movin'
[01:00.25] And that's what tortures me.
[01:02.65]
[01:35.15] When I was just a baby
[01:37.39] My mama told me son
[01:40.09] Always be a good boy
[01:42.28] Don't ever play with guns.
[01:44.53] But I shot a man in Reno
[01:47.40] Just to watch him die
[01:50.18]
[01:53.74] Every time I hear that whistle
[01:57.05] I hang my head and I cry.
[01:59.99]
[02:03.31] If they freed me from this prison
[02:05.68] If that railroad train was mine
[02:08.56] Bet I'd move it on a
[02:10.49] Little bit farther down the line.
[02:13.23] Far from Folsom Prison
[02:15.60] That's where I long to stay
[02:18.86]
[02:22.35] And I'd let that lonesome whistle
[02:25.85] Blow my blues away
[02:28.79]
[02:29.98]
