Johnny Cash - All Aboard the Blue Train (Definitive Expanded Remastered Edition)

I Heard That Lonesome Whistle

I was riding number nine, heading south from Caroline
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
I got in trouble, had to roam, I left his gal and I left his home
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow

Just a kid, acting smart, I went and broke his darling's heart
I guess I was too young to know
They took me off the Georgia Main, Locked me to a ball and chain
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow

All alone I bears the shame, I'm a number, not a name
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
All I do is sit and cry, when that evening train goes by
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow

I'll be locked here in this cell, 'til my body's just a shell
And my hair turns whiter than snow
I'll never see that gal of mine, I'm in Georgia doing time
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
