I was ridin' No 9 headin' south from Caroline I heard that lone-wow-wow-some whistle blow I got in trouble had to roam left my gal and left my home I heard that lone-wow-wow-some whistle blow Chorus 1: 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-wow-wow-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 Chorus 2: 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 that lone-vow-vow-some whistle blow I'll never see that gal of mine I'm in Georgia doing time I heard that lone-vow-vow-some whistle blow
