I Heard That Lonesome Whistle Lyrics - Hank Snow

I was ridin' no 9 

Heading south from Caroline 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

 

Got in trouble had to roam 

Left my gal and left my home 

I heard that 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 to Georgia Main 

Locked me to a ball and chain 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

 

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 the evening train goes by 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

 

I'll be locked here in this cell 

Till my body's just a shell 

And my hair turns whiter than the snow 

 

I'll never see that gal of mine 

Lord, I'm in Georgia doing time 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow
