    Story Behind the Song
    This is another cover Jill and I wanted to do. IT didn't take too long...a couple of hours

    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 at Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' 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; 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 folk eatin' in a fancy dining car.
    They're prob'ly 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 on 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.
