Stick Figure - Folsom Prison Dub lyrics
[Stick Figure - Folsom Prison Dub lyrics]
I hear the train a comin'
It's rolling round the bend
Well I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when
But, I'm stuck in folsom prison
And time keeps draggin' on
But, I hear the train a rollin'
On down to San Anton
When I was just a baby my mama told me son
Always be a good boy
And don't ever play with guns
But, I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
And I hear the whistle blowing
I my head and cry
I bet there's rich folks eating
In a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' whiskey 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
And if they'd free me from this prison
If that railroad train were mine
I bet I'd move a little on
A little farther down the line
Far from folsom prison
That's where I want to be
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
Blow my blues away
It's rolling round the bend
Well I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when
But, I'm stuck in folsom prison
And time keeps draggin' on
But, I hear the train a rollin'
On down to San Anton
When I was just a baby my mama told me son
Always be a good boy
And don't ever play with guns
But, I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
And I hear the whistle blowing
I my head and cry
I bet there's rich folks eating
In a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' whiskey 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
And if they'd free me from this prison
If that railroad train were mine
I bet I'd move a little on
A little farther down the line
Far from folsom prison
That's where I want to be
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
Blow my blues away
