Lonesome whistle  Hank Williams


Date: 12/9/96; 4:04:00 PM
(I Heard That) LONESOME WHISTLE 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.
