I hear the train acoming it's rolling round the bend
and I ain't seen the sunshine sine 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 the man in Reno, just to watch him die
when I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and cry
