      A couple of days ago I saw a guy with a black T-shirt with a large picture of John, which said in fancy letters "Johnny Cash / The Man in Black". My first thought would be "John would not approve."

    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 blowing, 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

    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
    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 eatin'
    In a fancy dining car
    They're probably drinkin' coffee
    And smokin' big cigars
    But 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
    If they freed me from this prison
    If that railroad train was mine
    I bet I'd move out over 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.
    So Great!
