Folsom Prison Blues Lyrics

Folsom Prison Blues Lyrics song presented by Conway Twitty :

I hear the train a comin'
It's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when.

I'm stuck in Folsom prison,
And time keeps draggin' on
But that train keeps a rollin'
On down to San Anton.

When I was just a baby
My mama told me. Son,
Always be a good boy,
Don't ever play with guns.

But I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
Now every time I hear that whistle
I hang my head and cry.

--- Instrumental---

I bet there's rich folks eating
In a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee
And smoking big cigars.

Well, I know I had it coming,
I know I can't be free
But those people keep a movin'
And that's what tortures me.

Well, if they'd free me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move just a little further
Down the line.

Far from Folsom prison,
That's where I want to stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
Blow my blues away...

What Do You Mean? (Acoustic Version) Lyrics song presented by Justin Bieber What do you mean? When you nod your head yes But you wanna say no What do you mean? When you don’t want me to move But you tell me to go What do you mean? Said we’re running out of time Trying to catch the beat make up your mind What do you mean? Better make up your mind What do you mean? You’re so indecisive of what I’m saying Don’t want us to end where do I start First you wanna go left and you want to turn right First you up and you’re down and then between Ohh I really want to know… When you nod your head yes But you wanna say no What do you mean? What do you mean? But you tell me to go Said we’re running out of time What do you mean? Better make up your mind What do you mean?

Wavin' Flag lyrics

When i get older, they'll call me freedom Just like a Waving Flag. [Chorus] 1. Born to a throne, stronger than Rome But Violent prone, poor people zone But it's my home, all I have known Where I got grown, streets we would roam But out of the darkness, I came the farthest Among the hardest survival Learn from these streets, it can be bleak Except no defeat, surrender retreat. So we struggling, fighting to eat and We wondering when we'll be free So we patiently wait, for that fateful day It's not far away, so for now we say. [Chorus:] When I get older, I will be stronger They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag And then it goes back, and then it goes back And then it goes back. 2. So many wars, settling scores Bringing us promises, leaving us poor I heard them say, love is the way Love is the answer, that's what they say But look how they treat us, Make us believers We fight their battles, then they deceive us Try to control...
