Paroles
I was riding Number Nine
Heading south from Caroline
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
I got in trouble, had to roam
I left my gal and left her home
I heard that long 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 the Georgia Main
Locked me to a ball and chain
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
All alone I bear the shame
I'm a number, not a name
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
All I do is sit and cry
When the evening train goes by
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
I'll be locked here in the cell
'Till my body's just a shell
And my hair turns whiter than snow
I'll never see that gal of mine
I'm in Georgia doing time
I heard that long lonesome whistle blow
Writer(s): Hank Williams Sr., Jimmie Davis
