John R. Cash lyrics

I hear the train a comin´
it´s rolling round the bend
and I ain´t seen the sunshine since I don´t know when,
I´m stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin´ on
but that train keeps a rollin´ on down to San Anton..
When I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,
always be a good boy, don´t ever play with guns.
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die

Well you ask me if I'll forget my baby.

I guess I will, someday.

I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

You ask me if I'll get along.
I guess I will, someway.

I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

God gave me that girl to lean on,

then he put me on my own.

Heaven help me be a man

and have the strength to stand alone.

i found him by the railroad track this mornin'
i could see that he was nearly dead
i nelt down beside him, and i listened
just to hear the words the dyin' fella said
he said they let me outa prison, out in frisco
for ten long years i paid for what i done
i was tryin to get back to lousiana
to see my rose, and get to know my son

give my love to rose, please wont ya mister?
