Folsom Prison Blues No. 1 12 lyrics
Hello I m Ben Colder
I hear the train a comin it s rollin down the track
It s comin to Folsom Prison to bring me a six pack
It s nice in Folsom Prison the warden s a swell guy
But when I hear that lonesome whistle I feel like I could die
When I was just a baby my mama put me down
Said you are just a baby don t take your guns to town
I shot a DJ up in Reno he wouldn t play my song
Now the DJ s round the country they play me loud and long
Hey whatch s that little ole lady doin in here
(I m just here to get my baby out of jail)
I ll bet there s rich folks eatin in them fancy dinin cars
They re probably smokin coffee and drinkin black cigars
I knew I s gonna mess that up I never get it right
But when I hear that lonesome whistle I feel like I could die
Warden said ya ll not supposed to do that
When I sing that that s a no no
If they freed me from this prison I d make like Jesse James
If ya ll won t tell the warden I ll steal this dadburn train
Bust through the walls of Folsom and make that whistle cry like this
And if ya ll d be nice fellas I d take you for a ride
I said a ride I didn t say die
