Testo di (i Heard That) Lonesome Whistle

Recorded by hank williams, sr. Words and music by jimmie davis and hank williams, sr. I was [d] ridin' number nine Headin' [g] south from caro-[d] line I heard that lone-[a7] some whistle [d] blow Got in trouble had to roam Left my [g] gal and left my [d] home I heard that lone-[a7] some whistle [d] blow. 1st refrain Just a [g] kid actin' smart I went and [d] broke my darlin's heart I guess i was too young to [a7] know They took me [d] off the georgia main Locked me [g] to a ball and [d] chain I heard that lone-[a7] some whistle [d] 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 ev'nin' train goes by I heard that lonesome whistle blow. 2nd refrain 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 Lord, i'm in georgia doin' time I heard that lonesome whistle blow
