Folsom Prison Blues (feat. The Tennessee Two) - Johnny Cash

Who you trying to get crazy with Whitey Don't you know I'm loco? I hear that train a-comin' Comin' around the bend And I ain't seen the sunshine Since I don't know when I'm stuck in Folsom Prison Time keeps draggin' on Andthat train just 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' From a fancy dining car They're probably drinking whiskey And smoking big cigars Well, I know I had it coming I know I can't be free 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'd probably move it just a little Farther down the line Far from Folsom Prison That's where I long to stay And I'd let that lonesome whistle Blow out my blues away

Hey, get rhythm! When you get the blues! C'mon get rhythm! When you get the blues! Get a rock and roll feeling in your bones Put taps on your toes, and get goin Get rhythm! When you get the blues! A little shoe-shine boy he never gets low-down But he's got the dirtiest job in town! Bending low at the peoples' feet On a windy corner of a dirty street Well, I asked him while she shined my shoes How'd he keep from getting the blues He grinned as he raised his little head He popped a shoe-shine rag, and he said Get rhythm! When you get the blues! C'mon get rhythm! When you get the blues! A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine It'll shake all your troubles from your worried mind Get rhythm! When you get the blues! Get rhythm! When you get the blues! C'mon get rhythm! When you get the blues! Get a rock and roll feeling in your bones Put taps on your toes, and get goin Get rhythm! When you get the blues! Well, I had to listen to the shoe-shine boy And I thought I was gonna jump for joy! Slapped on the shoe polish left and right He took a shoe-shine rag and he held it tight He stopped once to wipe the sweat away I said, you're a mighty little boy to be a-workin' that way! He said I like it, with a big wide grin Kept on a-poppin' and he said again Get rhythm! When you get the blues! C'mon get rhythm! When you get the blues! It only costs a dime, just a nickel a shoe It does a million dollars worth of good for you Get rhythm! When you get the blues!

Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River. Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die. I met her accidentally in St. Paul (Minnesota). And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl. Then I heard my dream was back Downstream cavortin' in Davenport, And I followed you, Big River, when you called. Then you took me to St. Louis later on (down the river). A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone. I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the bluff. She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone. Now, won't you bat it down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on. Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans. Go on, I've had enough; dump my blues down in the gulf. She loves you, Big River, more than me. Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River. Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die.

Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down I think you only live to see the lights of town I wasted my time when I would try, try, try 'Cause when the lights have lost their glow you'll cry, cry, cry Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone You wake up some cold day and find you're alone You'll call for me but I'm gonna tell you bye, bye, bye When I turn around and walk away you'll cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own You're gonna cry, cry, cry I lie awake at night to wait till you come in You stay a little while and then you're gone again Every question that I ask I get a lie, lie, lie For every lie you tell you're gonna cry, cry, cry When your fickle love gets old, no one will care for you Then you'll come back for me for a little love that's true I'll tell you no and you're gonna ask me why, why, why When I remind you of all of this you'll cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll want me then It'll hurt when you think of all the fool you've been You're gonna cry, cry, cry

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine I keep my eyes wide open all the time I keep the ends out for the tie that binds Because you're mine, I walk the line I find it very, very easy to be true I find myself alone when each day is through Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you Because you're mine, I walk the line As sure as night is dark and day is light I keep you on my mind both day and night And happiness I've known proves that it's right Because you're mine, I walk the line You've got a way to keep me on your side You give me cause for love that I can't hide For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide Because you're mine, I walk the line I keep a close watch on this heart of mine I keep my eyes wide open all the time I keep the ends out for the tie that binds Because you're mine, I walk the line

I found him by the railroad track this morning I could see that he was nearly dead I knelt down beside him and I listened Just to hear the words the dying fellow said He said, "They let me out of prison out in Frisco For ten long years, I've paid for what I've done I was trying to get back to Louisiana To see my Rose and get to know my son" Give my love to Rose please, won't you mister? Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him And don't forget to give my love to Rose Won't you tell them, I said thanks for waitin' for me Tell my boy to help his mom at home Tell my Rose to try to find another 'Cause it ain't right that she should live alone Mister, here's a bag with all my money It won't last them long the way it goes God bless you for findin' me this morning Now don't forget to give my love to Rose Give my love to Rose please, won't you mister? Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him And don't forget to give my love to Rose

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And she'll never know your story like I do 'Cause she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself "Hey, isn't this easy?" And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down You say, "You're fine", I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me Oh, I remember you driving to my house In the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh When you know you're 'bout to cry I know your favorite songs And you tell me 'bout your dreams Think I know where you belong Think I know it's with me Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me You belong with me Have you ever thought just maybe, you belong with me? You belong with me
