Gene Vincent - I Heard That Lonesome Whistle lyrics

I was ridin' No 9 headin' South from Caroline I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow I got in trouble had to roam left my gal and left my home I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow Just a kid actin' 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 lone vow vow some whistle blow All I do is sit and cry when the evening train goes by I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow All I do is bear the shame I'm a number not a name I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow I'll be locked here in this cell till my body's just a shell And my hair turns whiter than snow, oh Lord I'll never see that gal of mine I'm in Georgia doing time I heard thatllone vow vow some whistle blow I'll never see that gal of mine
