I was ridin' Number Nine,Headin' south from Caroline.I heard that lonesome whistle blow.Got in trouble, had to roam,I left my gal an' left my home.I heard that lonesome whistle blow.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 the 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 set [sic] an' cryWhen the evenin' train goes by.I heard that lonesome whistle blow.I'll be locked here in this cellTill my body's just a shellAn' 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.Letra enviada por: Mattheus Pirovani Roriz Gonçalves
