Paroles de (I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle

I was ridin' No 9 headin' south from Caroline I heard that lone-woa-woa-some whistle blow I got in trouble had to roam I left my gal and left my home I heard that lone-woa-woa-some whistle blow Just a kid acting smart I went and broke my darlin'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 lone-woa-woa-some whistle blow All alone I bear the shame I'm a number not a name I heard that lone-woa-woa-some whistle blow All I do is sit and cry when that evenin' train goes by I heard that lone-woa-woa-some whistle blow I'll be locked here in this cell till 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 doin' time I heard that lone-woa-woa-some whistle blow
