Verse 1
D
I hear the train a-comin'
It's rollin' 'round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since, I don't know when
G
I'm stuck in Folsom prison
D
And time keeps draggin' on
A
But that train keeps a-rollin'
D

Verse 2
D
When I was just a baby, my mama told me
"Son, always be a good boy
Don't ever play with guns"
G
But I shot a man in Reno
D
Just to watch him die
A
When I hear that whistle blowin'
D
I hang my head and cry

Verse 3
D
I bet there's rich folks eatin'
In a fancy dinin' car
They're probably drinkin' coffee
And smokin' big cigars
G
Well, I know I had it comin'
D
I know I can't be free
A
But those people keep a-movin'
D
And that's what tortures me

Verse 4
D
Well, if they freed me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on
A little farther down the line
G
Far from Folsom prison
D
That's where I want to stay
A
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
D
Blow my blues away
