Karaoké (I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle Hank Williams, Sr.

I was riding number nine heading south from Caroline

I heard that lone-woah-woah-some whistle blow

Got in trouble had to roam

Left my gal and left my home

I heard that lone-woah-woah-some whistle blow

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

I heard that lone-woah-woah-some whistle blow

All alone I bear the shame

I'm a number not a name

I heard that lone-woah-woah-some whistle blow

All I do is sit and cry

When the evenin' train goes by

I heard that lone-woah-woah-some whistle blow

I'll be locked here in this cell 'till 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 lone-woah-woah-some whistle blow
