David Allan Coe - Folsom Prison Blues lyrics

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, Lord just to watch him die Now I'm in the Folsom Prison, I'm starin at the sky I hear the train a comin, it's rollin round the bend And I ain't seen the sunshine woman, since I don't know when I'm stuck in Folsom prison, the time keeps draggin on And those wheels keep rollin on down to San Antone If they freed me from this prison and that railroad train was mine You can bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I long to be And those wheels keep rollin, Lord they would not torture me I know there's rich folks out there in those fancy dining cars I know they're drinkin coffee lord, smokin big cigars But I know I had it comin, I know I can't be free But those wheels keep rollin, Lord that's what tortures me If they freed me from this prison and that railroad train was mine You can bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I long to be And those wheels keep rollin, Lord theyw ould not torture me I hear the train a-comin, it's rollin round the bend And I ain't seen the sunshine woman since I don't know when Well I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin on And those wheels keep rollin on down to San Antone I hear the train a-comin, it's rollin round the bend And I ain't seen the sunshine woman since I don't know when Well I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin on And those wheels keep rollin on down to San Antone I don't care if I do die, do die, do die, do die, do die
