I Heard That Lonesome Whistle Blow Hank Williams - also by Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Townes van Zandt I was ridin’ number nine Headin’ south from Caroline I heard that lonesome whistle blow Got in trouble, got to roam Left my girl an’ left my home I heard that lonesome whistle blow Just a kid actin’ smart I went and broke my darling’s heart I guess I was to young to know They took me off to Georgia main Locked me to a ball an’ chain, I heard that lonesome whistle blow All along I’ve bared a shame I’m a number, not a name I heard that lonesome whistle blow All I do is sit and cry When the evenin’ train goes by I heard that lonesome whistle blow I’ll be locked here in a cell Till my body’s just a shell And my hair turns whiter than snow I’ll never see that girl of mine Cause I’m in Georgia doin’ time I heard that lonesome whistle blow   alles-uke.de
