Текст песни Ramblin' Jack Elliot - Railroad Bill

I hear the train a-comin', it's rollin round the bend,
And I ain't seen the sunshine sinceI don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time keeps dragging 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 shoot 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 folk eatin' in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars
Well I know I had it comin', 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 railroad train was mine,
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
Far from Folson Prison, that's where I want to stay,
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away
