sonnerie téléphone portable pour Folsom prison blues

I hear that train a comin', it's comin' 'round the bend
I ain't seen the sunshine since i don't know when
I'm locked in folsom prison and time keeps draggin' on
And i hear that train 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 lonesome whistle i hang my head and i cry

I bet there's rich folks eatin' in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars
Well, i know i had it comin', i know i can't be free
But i hear that train a-rollin' and that's what tortures me

Well, if they freed me from this prison and that railroad train was mine
I bet i'd move it over a little farther down the line
Far from folsom prison that's where i long to be
And let that train keep rollin' and roll my blues away
