6   6   6   -6   7   5   5
I hear the train a comin'
6   6   6   -6   7   6
It's rollin' 'round the bend
6   6   6   -6   -6   7   5
And I ain't seen the sunshine
5   5   6   6   6   -5*
Since, I don't know when
-5*   -5   5   -5   5   -5   5 (#)
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
-5   -5   5   -5*   5   3
And time keeps draggin' on
6   6   -5   -5   -5   3
But that train keeps a-rollin'
3   3   3   3   -2   -1*   -1   1
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

I bet there's rich folks eatin'
In a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee
And smokin' big cigars
But 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 out over 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
