Brooks & Dunn - Folsom Prison Blues (Feat. Johnny Cash) songtekst
Je score:
Well, I hear that train a-coming It's a rolling round the bend Well, I ain't seen the sunshine Since I don't know when And I'm stuck in Folsom prison Time keeps dragging on Well, that train keeps a-rolling On down to San Antone I was just a baby My mama told me, son Said, "Always be a good boy Don't ever play with guns" But I shot a man in Reno Just to watch him die When I hear that whistle blowing I hang my head and cry Well, I bet there's rich folks eating From a fancy dining car Well, they're probably drinking coffee And smoking big cigars Well, I know I had it coming I know I can't be free Now those people keep a-moving That's what tortures me If they'd free me from this prison If that railroad train was mine I bet I'd move just a little Further down the line Yeah, far from Folsom prison That's where I want to stay Lord, I hear that whistle blowing Blow my blues away (Spoken by Johnny) It's been thirty years now And I know I'll never leave This God forsaken place alive Honest to God, when I hear those words Ringing through my head As loud as that old train whistle Crying out to me night after continuous night Sending a cold steal quiver through my voice I close my eyes and pray That that iron horse is bound for the promise land And I'll get to ride it home to glory
