Merle Haggard - Folsom Prison lyrics
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
 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 I cry
 Merle Haggard - Folsom Prison - http://motolyrics.com/merle-haggard/folsom-prison-lyrics.html
 I bet there's rich folks eatin' in some fancy dining car
 They're probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars
 Well, I know I had it comin', 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
