Chorus:
I hear the train a comin'
It's rollin' '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

this must have been such a ''once in a lifetime'' moments, to be there.. God I wish..
I was there!
Waylon was actually the star of the live shows, in a way. He was the one who embraced the concept of the group and spoke and joked about himself and the others and kept the crowd entertained.
@@highnrising Exactly right. I saw them in the early 90s and I commented to the people I was with that it surprised me that Waylon was sort of the spokesman for the group. And he was really funny. I'd seen Waylon in concert in the late 70s and he hardly talked at all in between songs. Cash on the other hand (who I'd seen several times in concert) would always talk and joke with his audience, but he didn't say much during the Highwaymen show. He did get a standing ovation when he did the "Ragged Old Flag" which was very moving. Great memories - I love all four of these guys.
I saw them live in London in 1992. One of the two musical highlights of my life, the other being when I saw Paul Simon in concert.
My parents were
I know I had IT cumin I know I can't be * free* but that train whistle's blowin
And that's what tortures me * . . ...
Wh en I was just a baby, my mamma tole me , son. ,
Always be a GOOD boy, don't ever play with guns,
Well I shot man
in Reno, just
To *w a t c hh H I m die, when I hear that whistle blowin, I hang my head and cry.. I hav e an urge to tell you all a true story.
I'm a girl. *(Olde) .
When I was around 15 I was asked to go with a group of girls (not many, maybe 8? ) To interact/entertain
prisoners in a special program
I grew up with soul train as my favorite Saturday fun, and took a lot of dance, jazz, tap, ballet blahblahblah .. love LOVE to dance. Well, soul train*did THIS *white* (pink kinds)
Girl ALOT of good dancin stuff, AND the prisoners AND us were to DANCE.
So we DID! All of a sudden, they made me STOP.
They* were * afraid of a riot* ....
AND i Never felt SAFER! There wssnt one Man there who wouldnta hurt ,
even kill Someone hurting me. I WASSafer than anywhere else id Ever been .there might a been a riot of dancing, but that was the idea* so, when they made us stop dancing, i felt humiliated. So did the guys. They were cool as heck, it was the ladies* in charge who were the ah*s! With THEIR dirty minds.
I’m listening in 2024…and I’ve been listening ALL my life.
me too
Same here
Hell yeah 🔥
Same! I miss J.R. so much ❤

Imagine being as cool as Johnny cash. What a legend. A legend that will live forever
Agreed 🙂
Just as Lemmy, Bruce Dickinson and many others.....
coolest guy ever
@@aleksblaze88 I'd say he's second because no one is as cool as Elvis. Johnny would have said that himself I imagine.
Спасибо за классную музыку
I love that Kris is just as much as a fan as everyone in the audience. The dude knows the lyrics and jumps on the mic with everyone else!
I mean, who wouldn't given the chance?
Though i guess JC didn't like it... he said something and then shook his head like "tf are you doing"..." 2:22
@@daytonasunset haha they probably planned it
@@daytonasunset i don't think Johnny took it too personally honestly. I know Johnny is known to be able to be pissed off fairly easily, but i doubt that he was too mad at his friend for that 1 little 10 second thing
@@daytonasunset Nop, JC actually told him to sing, 1:52
Can you imagine even being on the stage with The Man in Black playing Folsom Prison Blues...
ole Midnight. With a Nissan!
Lol you sound like a girl talking about her favorite KPOP queers
The Legend Himself❤🎉
0:43 Cash: "Just to watch him die"
Kristofferson: "You are bad" :)
The level of admiration Kris has for Johnny is UNREAL .
What a great song 🎵 2024,never get tired listening to this tune.
Will always listen them. I love country music.
The legend The Man in Black still bringing the heat in 2024...much love from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
Back when country was music
This song was so important for his career!! Written in Landsberg (Germany) during his Air Force service and performed for Sun Records in 1955 it became a kind of a Signature song for him.
The one and only JRCASH. What an Artist!! An international Superstar!!! RIP GREAT MAN. /CD
Not to mention that it became a hit in 1968 after he performed it in Folsom State Prison, and it had 2 re-records! One from 1964 and one from 1988.
He stole the song from crescent city blues. He had to pay $75,000 to play it. I’m a big cash fan, but he didn’t write this shit
@@JR-wo3sn The idea is adapted from a song called Crescent City Blues. Which was a slow, orchestra song.
Nothing was 'stolen'. And he certainly did write "this shit". So much for calling yourself a Cash fan.
@@JR-wo3sn I thought it was written by Shel Silverstein?
Cette chanson était si importante pour sa carrière !! Écrit à Landsberg (Allemagne) pendant son service dans l'armée de l'air et interprété pour Sun Records en 1955, il est devenu une sorte de chanson signature pour lui.
Le seul et unique JRCASH. Quel artiste !! Une Superstar internationale !!! RIP GRAND HOMME. /CD
The Backing Band is just sick, Legendary
Johnny Cash singing' Folsom Prison Blues, Reggie Young pickin', Waylon, Willie & Kris' watchin', as good as it gets! Probably the most famous song in Country Music ..
Kristofferson at some point sings along at the end.
I'd go a little further and say "I walk the Line, or " Ring of Fire"
...Imagine introducing trumpets in a country song
@@carolinebjerkelund767 Caroline, you may be right - but Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison is maybe the greatest Live Album of all time and this track rocks straight out of Sun Records. JR must have sung this song at least 10,000 times! Your choice of I Walk the Line and Ring of Fire is good, then so is Get Rhythm and (Ghost) Riders in the Sky .... StaySafe Caroline
@@pgsomers8775 who is JR?
@@dudekfox7685 JR is Johnny Cash. 'J.R.' was on his birth certificate - that became John in the US Air Force and eventually Johnny at Sun Records. The R stands for nothing! His parents could decide on John Ray or John Rivers for his given names so settled on J.R. - btw his mother's maiden name was 'Rivers'. All detail ... stay safe
For 1990, the quality is impeccable. Love this song
The original quality had nothing to do with this. This is the remastered version of 2016.
I think Kris is enjoying more than anybody else. Legends
They don't make music like this anymore. R.I.P Mr Cash♥️⚘
Put all of The Highway Men in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!!!
RIP Johnny, waylon, and the great Reggie young...
How was your day today😊
And Kris now :(
“Hello I’m Johnny Cash “ nuff said!
Music to my ears.
A lotty said, you still in pre-school...I am...
So thankful that the filmmakers chose to shoot on film instead of video which was becoming more common at that time. Videotapes hard a resolution of roughly 480i. When 35mm film is scanned, it resolves a resolution of about 4k. As a result, this restored footage looks like it was shot yesterday. Great to see history preserved!
Nice to see you all again anyone still here in October 2024? (Edit: I’d like to say R.I.P to Kris Kristofferson he was a great songwriter may godbless him as he blessed Mr Johnny Cash & Mr Waylon Jennings. Godbless you all.)
The guitarist, Reggie Young, passed away in 2019. RIP.
That's sad to hear. Although can see how much he enjoyed playing with them in all the videos
The singer, Johnny Cash, passed away in 2003. RIP.
God blessed them all and they left that blessing to us ALL.😊
RIP Reggie YOUNG. 1936-12-12 till 2019-01-17.
Listening in 2024. Been listening since 1983. From Folsom prison.
I am listening this diamond every day, will as long as I live, from Canada 💕
Every time Johnny lifts his guitar like that I feel like he's hitting his star power like on the game.
I'm enjoying this classic song in September 2024. The Highwaymen should be renamed The Immortals. Their music will stay with us forever.
what a great song
i cry
every time
i listen
Reggie was a beautiful guitarist.This is wonderful.
Great Song! Johnny's voice is so cool & Reggie Young on that guitar is magical.
Reggie Young is just ringin it on with that electric guitar, Cash is also playing and singing, ohhh how sweet it is...
Johnny und Reggie Young spielen jetzt im Himmel weiter Gitarre 🎸
The Highwaymen were the most amazing boygroup ever!! RIP WAYLON and JOHN R CASH and Reggie YOUNG . /CD
Cornelia Denninger they were men
@@triggered8556 preach it.
Aaron Cobb “boygroup” wtf?!
@@triggered8556 I know right these are some of the most manly guys out there.
Finally someone who gives Reggie Young credit, thankyou!!!
i love this song!!
I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW GOOD THIS IS!!
I'M IN COUNTRY HEAVEN!
...This legends never die....only us !...
I love watching live shows from the highwaymen. They always look like they are having so much fun and just love being on stage together. You can tell no egos involved in this band just the music matters
Beautiful love it RIP Kris.K thanks for the great memories Sir 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Kris looks like he's having the greatest time!
Cause he is
They were living legends alright

The one and only True American Gangster
Sou um dos poucos brasileiros que tem o prazer de admirar a grandiosidade do country americano. Excepcional!
Listening to this song while driving an actual train between northern Italy mountains, and blowing the locomotive whistle when he sings "When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry". 🤩
Wow the video quality for 1990 is awesome
If I could go back in time I would attend this show..
I’m only 25, so I definitely wasn’t alive during his prime time but man am I glad my dad showed me legends like Johnny Cash when I was just a few years old
Well emmm i’m 14 s
I'm 16, and I'm not American, I'm from Macedonia
@@hristijankuzmanoski8689 Macedonia or North Macedonia?
@@username9175 MACEDONIA
@@hristijankuzmanoski8689 Ok, was just wondering as I know there are 2 places of that name
I was 3 years old when this went down. I have no memory of seeing it but my parents said I danced in front of the tv the whole show. And now when I watch it at 35 I get the most goosebumps and even tear up.
Man, during this show I wouldn't even be born for another 12 years. I envy you to have even been alive for it lol
They are the best of the best. They always will be. Their music is gonna be heard somewhere around the universe forever. Rest in peace Kris, Waylon, Johnny… May the god save Willie; the very last highwayman. Youre all still around, living still and be back again as highwaymen or may be a single drop of rain. But youll be remain…
I just love the sound of that Telecaster twang.
Johnny was a poet that happened to also play guitar and sing
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...
THANK YOU

So much talent on one stage. This must have been amazing to see live and in person.
Awesome! You'll never hear anything like this again. Keep it going.
The Highwaymen the best
Like a fine wine that tastes better with age...
I wish I was alive and old enough and sentient enough to have gone to this concert!
Merci Mr
Was lucky enough to see them with my father before he passed. It is and was a once in a lifetime memory! God. Bless!!
Rip legends
The best show ever the haywey men❤
Alguém em JUNHO de 2024 ( Sou do Brasil e curto de mais Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson e Country em Geral ). Is The Best
Boy after watching this I sure wish I could have been at Nassau Collisum in NY. 1990s
What a great lead guitarist. The icing on the cake.
That's Reggie YOUNG.
“Wow!” UA-cam - Jonny Weiss “Maria.” New Song Release. 🎺 🎶 Chris You’re RockIn with Johnny & Waylon Jennings. & Willie!
his voice is a gift from god
This was 30 years ago, unbelievable,...
WOW litteraly gold
All the people going on here that they dislike what Kris did here. And some are saying Johnny did too. I can understand why he might not have liked it. But I have to say, from my own view on it, I really like it. In fact it's my favourite part of the song.
Wonder why people didn’t like it? Because it was Johnny Cash’s performance?
the best of the best are here class
this song is very good man
You can tell how much excited is Kris when he sing with Johnny for 10 seconds just to be on this legendary song for a while... Those are real artists
Cash didn't like Kristofferson doing it though. Kristofferson would do it to pick on Cash.

RIP Reggie Young amazing musician !!!
Bravo country music bravo america...!
Billy Joe Shaver said that out of all of them, when Johnny Cash was on stage, it was HIS STAGE. I love them all, but there will never be another Johnny Cash. He was like a prophet. Like Willie and Merle said, Cash had the fire of a thousand men.
Best version of this song ever
Je ne me lasserais jamais d’écouter ces merveilles
legends
Helllo😊
I'm just 11 years old and I still know he's a legend
that's great bro, your parents taught you right about country music
I'm just a sperm in my daddy's ballsack and even I know he's a legend!
Hello, excellent music as I like
The late great Reggie Young on guitar, Reggie on so many hits it would be hard to list them all. RIP Reggie.
A true American
Oh god so do I what talent what a show it will never grow old
This is my favorite version of this song? Heard it with my dad building our house in CT!

Wonderful guitar player too all for the songs!
Man i wish i was there....The greatest of country music.
Love all four of them but Johnny is a Legend simply unparalleled
That lead guitar in the background is something else!
That's Reggie Young on lead guitar!!
i got goosebumps in the end!
What I like is you can tell the guys are having a blast
His voice is laid back and amazing!
Reggie, one of the best. Greetings from Ireland.
That looks like the most fun ever! What a man Johnny was, Rest in Paradise Legend
Saw these wonderful men in person on the stage in Brisbane Aust. Many years ago. Could have sat all night listening to them.
Very talented musicians and singers, unlike today's "entertainers" who
don't even qualify to open a door for these gentlemen.
Good job on sharing another overstated opinion that no one gives a fuck about. Just shut the fuck up and let people enjoy whatever they want.
I wished I would have been able to witness this concert live. Country legends and Reggie Young plays his guitar so masterfully.
I wish I'd have been there..what a concert..!!
i think this was the greatest concert ever!
Very excellent music. I adore
I wish I was alive to see all of them in concert
If it weren't for Kris Kristofferson, we wouldn't have ever heard of John Prine. It was Kris that discovered him at a small bar in Chicago. But there first, was John's good friend Steve Goodman, writer of the City of New Orleans.
