I Heard That Lonesome Whistle
Lyricist:Jimmie Davis, Sr., Hank Williams
I was ridin' No. 9 Headin' south from Caroline I heard that lonesome whistle blow
Got in trouble had to roam I left my friends and left my home I heard that lonesome whistle blow
Just a kid acting smart I went and broke my darling's heart I guess I was too young to know
They took me off to Georgia Main They locked me to a ball and chain I heard that lonesome whistle blow
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com All alone I bear the shame I'm a number not a name I heard that lonesome whistle blow
All I do is sit and cry When that evening train goes by I heard that lonesome whistle blow
I'll be locked here in this cell Until my body's just a shell And my hair turns whiter than snow
I'll never see that gal of mine Lord, I'm in Georgia doing time I heard that lonesome whistle blow
