(I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle (Single Version)

[00:08.16] I was riding number nine
[00:12.06] Heading south from Caroline
[00:15.91] I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[00:23.44] Got in trouble, had to roam
[00:27.32] Left my girl and left my home
[00:31.27] I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[00:39.21] Just a kid actin' smart
[00:43.05] I went and broke my darling's heart
[00:47.48] I guess I was too young to know
[00:54.33] They took me off to Georgia Main
[00:58.49] Locked me to a ball and chain
[01:02.55] I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[01:10.34]
[01:18.46] All alone I bear the shame
[01:22.51] I'm a number not a name
[01:26.28] I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[01:34.17] All I do is sit and cry
[01:38.29] When the evenin' train goes by
[01:42.01] I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[01:50.10] I'll be locked here in this cell
[01:53.92] 'Til my body's just a shell
[01:58.39] And my hair turns whiter than snow
[02:05.66] I'll never see that gal of mine
[02:09.62] Lord, I'm in Georgia doin' time
[02:13.73] I heard that lonesome whistle blow
[02:22.65]
