Je score:
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
