Brooks and Dunn & Johnny Cash
Album: Red Hot + Country
Well, I hear the train a comin�
It�s a rolling round the bend
Well, I ain�t seen the sunshine
Since I don�t know when,
And I�m stuck in Folsom prison,
Time keeps draggin� on
But that train keeps a rollin�
On down to San Antone.
I was just a baby
My mama told me, son,
Said, 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.
--- Instrumental ---
Well, I bet there�s rich folks eating
In a fancy dining car
They�re probably drinkin� coffee
And smoking big cigars.
Well, I know I had it coming,
I know I can�t be free
Now, those people keep a-movin�
That�s what tortures me.
If they�d free me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I�d move just a little
Further down the line
Yeah, Far from Folsom prison,
That's where I want to stay
Lord I here that whistle blowing
Blow my blues away.
(Spoken by Johnny)
It's been thirty years now
And I know I'll never leave
This God forsaken place alive
Honest to God, When I hear those words
Ringin' through my head
As loud as that old train whistle
Crying out to me night after continuous night
Sending a cold steal quiver through my voice
I close my eyes and pray
That that iron horse is bound for the promise land
And I'll get to ride it home to glory...
