Folsom Prison Blues & That's All Right Lyrics

Well, I hear that train a comin'

Comin' around the bend

And I ain't seen the sunshine

Since I don't know when



And I'm stuck in Folsom Prison

I'm bound to stay and die

And when I hear the lonesome whistle

I hang my head down and cry



Well, now when I was a baby

My momma told me, "Son,

Always be a good boy

Don't you ever play with guns"



But I shot a man in Reno

Just to watch him die

And when I hear the lonesome whistle

I hang my head down and cry



Well, now if I was a railroad

If that old freight train was mine

I think I'd get it moving

Just a little down the line



But I knew I had it comin'

I had to carry-on

And now I hear the whistle blowin'

Down the San Antone



Well, my momma she done told me

Poppa done told me, too

"Son, that gal you foolin' with

She ain't no good for you"



But that's all right

That's all right

That's all right now, momma

Anyway that you do



Well, I stand at my window

I hang my head and cry

I hate to lose that woman

Hate to say good-bye



But that's all right

That's all right

That's all right now, momma

Anyway that you do



Well, baby, one of these mornings

And, lord, it won't be long

You're gonna look for me, baby

And daddy will be gone



But that's all right

That's all right

That's all right now, momma

Anyway that you do



That's all right now, momma

Anyway that you do



That's all right now, momma

Anyway that you do
