Folsom Prison
Blues Johnny Cash I hear the train a-comin, its rollin round the bend And I aint seen the sunshine since I dont know when Im stuck at Folsom Prison and time keeps dragin on But that train keeps rollin on down to San Antone When I was just a baby my mama told me: Son, always be a good boy, dont 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 theres rich folks eatin in a fancy dining car Theyre probly drinkin coffee and smokin big cigars But I know I had it comin, I know I cant be free But those people keep a-movin, and thats what tortures me Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine I bet Id move on over a little farther down the line Far from Folsom Prison, thats where I want to stay And Id let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away alles-uke.de |
