Folsom Prison Blues (Live)

Hello I'm johnny cash

I hear the train a comin'

It's rolling round the bend

And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when

I'm stuck in folsom prison and time keeps draggin' on

But that train keeps a rollin' on down to san antone

When I was just a baby my mama told me son

Always be a good boy don't ever play with guns

But I shot a man in reno just to watch him die

When I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry

Suey

I bet there's rich folks eating from a fancy dining car

They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars

Well I know I had it coming I know I can't be free

But those people keep a movin'

And that's what tortures me

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

Far from folsom prison that's where I want to stay

And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
