Liquid Blue - Folsom Prison Blues Lyrics

Lyrics Folsom Prison Blues - Liquid Blue



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 in 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 San Diego just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry
Oh, hey!
Oh, Sue in San Diego
All the way to Reno
Well, I bet there's rich folks eatin' from a fancy dinin' cart
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars
Well, 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
Hey!
Ah, Lazy Jim
It's a boy named Sue
Just for you, and you too
Boy named Sue
Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on 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
Hey!
