I hear that 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 dragging on
But that freight train keeps a rolling on down to San Antone
Well when I was just a baby my mama told me son
Bocephus be a good boy don't ever play with guns
But I killed a man in Shreveport just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing I hang my head and I cry
I bet there's rich folks eatin' in a fancy dining car
They're prob'ly drinking coffee and smoking big cigars
But I know I had it coming I know I can't be free
But those people keep a moving and that's what tortures me
[ guitar ]
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 wanna stay
Then Lord I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
Oh Lord I'd let that lonesome whistle blow all my blues away

. . .


Don't call my name out your window I'm leaving and I won't even turn my head
Don't send your kinfolks to give me no talkin' I'll be long gone like I said
You say the same old things that you've been saying all along
Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shot till I'm gone
And don't give me that old familiar cryin' cussin' moan
Understand your man understand your man
[ guitar - steel ]
You can give my other suits to the Salvation Army and everything else I leave behind
Cause I ain't takin' nothin' that'll slow down my traveling
While I'm untangling my mind
Oh I ain't gonna repeat what I've said anymore
While I'm breathin' this air that ain't been breathed before
I'll be as gone as a wild goose in winter you'll understand your man
Think about it honey understand your man hear me talkin' understand your man
Cause I'm leavin' understand your man don't be grievin' understand your man

. . .


At my door the leaves are falling the cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together and I still miss someone
I go out to a party and I look around for fun
But all I find's a darkened corner cause I still miss someone
Though I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywehere
I miss those arms that held me when all the love was there
Oh I wonder if she's sorry for leaving what we had begun
There's someone for me somewhere and I still miss someone
Though I never got over those blue eyes...
Yes I still miss someone

. . .


I keep a close watch on this heart of mine I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds because you're mine I walk the line
I find it very very easy to be true I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes I'll admit that I'm a fool for you because you're mine I walk the line
[ guitar ]
As sure as night is dark and day is light I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right because you're mine I walk the line
[ guitar ]
You've got a way to keep me on your side you give me cause for love that I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide because you're mine I walk the line
[ steel ]
I keep a close watch...

I found him by the railroad track this morning I could see that he was nearly dead
I knelt down beside him and I listened just to hear the words the dyin' fellow said
He said they let me out of prison out in Frisco
For ten long years I paid for what I've done
I was tryin' to get back to Louisiana just to see my Rose and get to know my son
Give my love to Rose please won't you Mister
Take her all my money tell her buy some pretty clothes
Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him and don't forget to give my love to Rose
[ steel ]
Won't you tell them I said thanks for waitin' for me
Tell my boy to help his mom at home
Tell my Rose to try and find another cause it ain't right that she should live alone
Now Mister here's the bag with all my money it won't last them long the way it goes
God bless you for finding me this morning now don't forget to give my love to Rose
Give my love to Rose...

Hey porter hey porter would you tell me the time
How much longer will it be till we cross that Mason Dixon Line
At daylight would you tell that engineer to slow it down
Or better still just stop the train cause I want to look around
Hey porter hey porter what time did you say
How much longer will it be till I can see the light of day
When we hit Dixie tell that engineer to ring the bell
And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell
[ guitar ]
Hey porter hey porter it's gettin' light outside
This old train is puffing smoke and I have to strain my eyes
But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle please
Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves and I feel that southern breeze
Hey porter hey porter please take my bags from me
I need nobody to tell me that we're in Tennessee
Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream
I know we're not too far from home so take it easy on the steam
[ steel ]
Hey porter hey porter please open up the door
When they stop this train I'm gonna get off first cause I can't wait no more
Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot I didn't mind the fare
I'm gonna set my feet on southern soil and breathe that southern air

. . .


Love is a burning thing and it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire Lord I fell into a ring of fire
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down down down and the flames went higher
And it burns burns burns the ring of fire the ring of fire
[ steel ]
I fell into a burning ring of fire...

Now the taste of love is sweet when hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child oh but the fire went wild
I fell into a burning ring of fire...
[ guitar ]
I fell into a burning ring of fire...
And it burns burns burns the ring of fire the ring of fire

. . .


Just around the corner there's heartaches down the street that losers use
If you can wade in through the teardrops
You'll find me at the Home of the Blues
I walk and cry while my heartbeat keeps time with the drag of my shoes
The sun never shines through this window of mine
Oh it's dark in the Home of the Blues

But the place is filled with sweetest mem'ries mem'ries so sweet that I cry
Dreams that I've had left me feeling so bad I just wanna give up and lay down and die
So if you just lost your sweetheart and it seemes there's no good way to choose
Come along with me misery loves company
Oh you're welcome at the Home of the Blues
[ guitar ]
Yeah you're welcome at the Home of the Blues

Well I taught the weeping willow how to cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
Oh I met her accidentaly in St Paul Minnesota
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl southern drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavortin' in Davenport
And I followed you Big River when you called
Then you took me to St Louis later on down the river
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone boy she's gone
I found her trail in Memphis but she just walked up the block
She raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone
[ steel - guitar ]
Now won't you batter down by Boton Rouge River Queen roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans New Orleans
Go on I've had enough dump my blues down in the gulf
Oh she loves you Big River more than me
Yeah I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die

. . .


You ask me if I'll forget my baby I guess I will someday
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
You ask me if I'll get along I guess I will someway
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
God gave me that girl to lean on then he put me on my own
Heaven help me be a man and have the strenght to stand alone
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
[ steel ]
You ask me if I'll miss her kisses I guess I will everyday
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
You ask me if I'll find another I don't know I can't say
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
Lord gave me that girl to lean on...
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
