Ricky Nelson - Lonesome Whistle Blow Recorded: 1967 [Intro]          [Verse] I was ridin’ Number Nine Headin’ south from Caroline I heard that lonesome whistle blow. I got in trouble I had to roam Left my gal and left my home [Chorus] I heard that lonesome whistle blow. [Verse] Just a kid actin’ smart I went and broke my darlin’s heart I guess I was too young to know. They took me off the Georgia Main Locked me to a ball and chain [Chorus] I heard that lonesome whistle blow [Solo]          [Verse] 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 [Chorus] I heard that lonesome whistle blow. [Verse] I’ll be locked here in this cell ’Til 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 [Outro] I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
