I was ridin' Number Nine, Headin' south from Caroline. I heard that lonesome whistle blow. Got in trouble, had to roam, 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' cry When the evenin' train goes by. I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
I'll be locked here in this cell Till my body's just a shell An' 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.
