Folsom Prison Blues (Live) (3:05)
From At Folsom Prison and 61 other releases
This Song, “Folsom Prison Blues”, IS BEAUTY AND SIMPLICITY ITSELF, LYRICALLY, INSTRUMENTALLY - ONLY THREE EASY CHORDS - E, A, and B, with a minimal strain on the left hand chord shapin’ hand and no effort at all on the right hand finger pickin’ hand — AND MORALLY SPEAKIN’ this song is not sympathetic towards somebody locked away within walls of social moral relativism (in so far as if you kill for your own reasons then society marks you as an outcast and a pariah; but if you kill for your government
…
, then society hails you as a hero and pins a medal on ya chest!!! (WAR IS, (LET’S BE HONEST NOW) STATE-APPROVED KILLING, THAT IS TO SAY: LEGALIZED MURDER!!!!)
C YA SOON!!!
C YA SOON!!!

I hear the train a-comin'
It's rollin' around the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when
