Letra Lonesome Whistle de Hank Williams original

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.
