(I Heard that)Lonesome Whistle Blow Bob Dylan Capo 2 I was riding number 9, heading south from Carolina. I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow. Got in trouble, had to roam, left my girl, left my home. I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow. Just a kid, acting smart, I went and broke my baby's heart. I guess I was too young to know. They took me off that Georgia Main and locked me to a ball and chain. I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow. (x2) All I do is sit and cry as the evening train goes by. I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow. I'll be locked here in this cell, till my body's just a shell and my head turns whiter than snow. I'll never see that girl of mine 'cos I'm in Georgia doing time. I heard that lo-oonesome whistle blow.
