Gene Vincent - Lonesome Whistle Lyrics

Lyrics Lonesome Whistle - Gene Vincent



I was ridin′ Number Nine
Headin' south from Caroline
I heard that lonesome whistle blow
Got in trouble had to roam
Left my gal and left my home
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
Just a kid actin′ smart
I went and broke my darlin's heart
I guess I was too young to know
They took me off the Georgia Main
Locked me to a ball and chain
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
All alone I bear the shame
I'm a number not a name
I heard that lonesome whistle blow
All I do is sit and cry
When the ev′ning train goes by
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
I′ll be locked here in this cell
'Til my body′s just a shell
And my hair turns whiter than the snow
I'll never see that gal of mine
Lord, I′m in Georgia, doin' time
I heard that lonesome whistle blow
