What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Who you trying to get crazy with Whitey
2
Don't you know I'm loco?
3
I hear that train a-comin'
4
Comin' around the bend
5
And I ain't seen the sunshine
6
Since I don't know when
7
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
8
Time keeps draggin' on
9
Andthat train just keeps a-rollin'
10
On down to San Antone
11
When I was just a baby
12
My mama told me, son
13
Always be a good boy
14
Don't ever play with guns
15
But I shot a man in Reno
16
Just to watch him die
17
When I hear that whistle blowin'
18
I hang my head and cry
19
I bet there's rich folks eatin'
20
From a fancy dining car
21
They're probably drinking whiskey
22
And smoking big cigars
23
Well, I know I had it coming
24
I know I can't be free
25
Those people keep a-movin'
26
And that's what tortures me
27
If they freed me from this prison
28
If that railroad train was mine
29
I'd probably move it just a little
30
Farther down the line
31
Far from Folsom Prison
32
That's where I long to stay
33
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
34
Blow out my blues away
