Blues Folsom Prison

Blues Folsom Prison

I hear a train approaching, is taking the curve
and I saw the sunrise from nor when,
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, and time is endless,
while the train remains on track to San Antonio.

When I was just a kid, my mother told me "Son,
is always a good boy, do not ever play with guns "
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.
When I hear that whistle sound, I can only bow their heads and mourn

I bet there's rich types in the beautiful dining restaurant,
likely to be drinking coffee and smoking big cigars.
Well I saw it coming, I can be free,
But these people are still moving, and that's what tortures me

Well, if I was released from this prison, if that train was mine
I bet it would go a little beyond the border
far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to be
and let that whistle solo takes away my disgrace.

    This song, besides being the most famous by Johnny Cash, says what he thinks every prisoner. And we go back through that sound so characteristic of the boom-boom-chomp to the rhythm of the train moving and keep going.
