I h[E]ear the train a comin', it's rolling round the bend
And I[E] ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know [E7]when,
I'm [A]stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin'[E] on
But [B7]that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Ant[E]one..

When [E]I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,
Al[E]ways be a good boy, don't ever play with [E7]guns.
But I[A] shot a man in Reno just to watch him [E]die
When I[B7] hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and [E]cry..

I be[E]t there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're[E] probably drinkin' whiskey and smoking big c[E7]igars.
Well I [A]know I had it coming, I know I can't be [E]free
But thos[B7]e people keep a movin' and that's what tortures[E] me...

Well [E]if they freed me from this prison, If that railroad train was mine
I bet[E] I'd move it on a little farther down the l[E7]ine
Far [A]from Folsom prison, that's where I want to [E]stay
And [B7]I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues [E]away.....
