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 Antone.. 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 When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry.. I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars. Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free But those people keep a movin' And that's what tortures me... Well if they freed me from this prison, If that railroad train was mine I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line Far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away... |

I found him by the railroad track this morning
I could see that he was nearly dead I knelt down beside him and I listened Just to hear the words the dying fellow said He said they let me out of prison down in Frisco For ten long years I've paid for what I've done I was trying to get back to Louisiana To see my Rose and get to know my son Chorus: Give my love to Rose please won't you mister Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him And don't forget to give my love to Rose Tell them I said thanks for waiting for me Tell my boy to help his mom at home Tell my Rose to try to find another For it ain't right that she should live alone Mister here's a bag with all my money It won't last them long the way it goes God bless you for finding me this morning And don't forget to give my love to Rose Chorus: Give my love to Rose please won't you mister Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him And don't forget to give my love to Rose |

Just around the corner there's heartache
Down the street that losers use If you can wade in through the teardrops You'll find me at the Home of the Blues I walk and cry while my heartbeat Keeps time with the drag of my shoes The sun never shines through this window of mine It's dark at the Home of the Blues Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem'ries Mem'ries so sweet that I cry Dreams that I've had left me feeling so bad I just want to give up and lay down and die So if you've just lost your sweetheart And it seems there's no good way to choose Come along with me, misery loves company You're welcome at the Home of the Blues Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem'ries Mem'ries so sweet that I cry Dreams that I've had left me feeling so bad I just want to give up and lay down and die So if you've just lost your sweetheart And it seems there's no good way to choose Come along with me, misery loves company You're welcome at the Home of the Blues You'll find me at the Home of the Blues Yeah, you're gonna find me at the Home of the Blues |

The next in line will be someone who loves you
The next in line is me, 'cause it's my time Now how long will it be, till you end my misery You better be prepared to linger, when you get to me The time has come for you to love me, if you ever are Come to me now, so I can make you mine I watched them rush to you so fast I waited so I'd be the last It's my time, 'cause I'm the next in line The next in line will want your love forever The next in line is me and here I am Give me a day or two and I'll get through to you You'd been my baby long ago, if you'd turned down a few This old heart can't take much more waitin' for your love I'm tired and we're runnin' short of time I'll make you love me more than everyone before It's my time to try, 'cause I'm the next in line I stood and watched you take their hearts And break 'em one by one My time is comin', so I waited while you had your fun Now I'm through a-waitin' way behind It's my time, 'cause I'm the next in line |

I do my best to hide this lowdown feelin'
I try to make believe there's nothing wrong But they're always asking me about you darling And it hurts me so to tell 'em that you're gone If they ask me I guess I'd be denyin' that I've been unhappy all alone But if they heard my heart they'd hear it cryin' Where's my darling, when's she coming home I ask myself a million times what's right for me to do To try to lose my blues alone or hang around for you But I make it pretty good until that moon comes shining through And that I get so doggone lonesome Time stands still when you're a waitin' sometimes I think my heart is stoppin' too One lonely hour seems forever sixty minutes more to wait for you But I guess I'll keep waitin' till you're with me cause I believe that loving you is right But I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow if I can't have you with me tonight Well I know I'll keep on loving you cause true love can't be killed I ought to get you off of my mind but I guess I never will I could have a dozen others but I know I'd love you still Cause I get so doggone lonesome |

You're gonna break another heart, you're gonna tell another lie
Well here I am and there you go, you're gone again I know you're gonna be the way you've always been Breakin' hearts and tellin' lies is all you know Another guy gives you the eye and there you go There you go, you're gone again I should have known, I couldn't win There you go, you're by his side You're gonna break another heart, you're gonna tell another lie Because I love you so I take much more than I should take I want you even though I know my heart is gonna break You build me up and for a while I'm all a-glow Then your fickle heart sees someone else and there you go Thre you go, you're gone again I should have known, I couldn't win There you go, you're by his side You're gonna break another heart, you're gonna tell another lie |

Train of love's a-comin', big black wheels a-hummin'
People waitin' at the station, happy hearts are drummin' Trainman tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home. Now stop your whistle blowin', 'cause I got ways of knowin' Your bringin' other people's lovers, but my own keeps goin' Train of love's deceivin', when she's not gone she's leavin' Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home Train of love's now hastin', sweethearts standin' waitin' Here and there and everywhere, there's going to be embracin' Trainman tell me maybe, ain't you got my baby Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home Train of love's a-leavin', leavin' my heart grievin' But early or late, I sit and wait, because I'm still believin' We'll walk away together, though I may wait forever Every so often everybody's baby gets the urge to roam But everybody's baby but mine's comin' home |
