Lyrics

I was riding number nine heading south from Caraloine
Iheard that lonesome whistle blow
Just a kid acting smart iwent and broke my darlings heart
They took me off that Georgia main locked me to a ball and chain
Iherd that lonesome whistle blow
I'll be locked in this cell till my bodys just a shell
I'never see that girl of mine I'm in Georgia doing time
I herd that lonesome whistle blow
