Biography:
The International Submarine Band was formed by country rock pioneer Gram Parsons and John Nuese, a guitar player for local rock group, The Trolls. Nuese is largely credited with having persuaded Parsons to pursue the country-rock sound he would later be remembered for when the two first started The International Submarine Band ("ISB"). Parsons' work with the band predates his better known ventures with The Byrds and The Flying Burrito Brothers, and with the Fallen Angels with Emmylou Harris.

[Intro]
E7
[Verse 1]
E7
Well, I hear that train a comin', comin' around the bend
E7
I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
A7 E7
And I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, I'm bound to stay and die
B7 E7
And when I hear the lonesome whistle, I hang my head down and cry
[Verse 2]
E7
Well, now when I was a baby, My momma told me, "Son,
E7
Always be a good boy, don't you ever play with guns"
A7 E7
But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die
B7 E7
And when I hear the lonesome whistle, I hang my head down and cry
[Verse 3]
E7
Well, now if I was a railroad, if that old freight train was mine
E7
I think I'd get it moving just a little down the line
A7 E7
But I knew I had it comin', I had to carry on
B7 E7
And now I hear the whistle blowin' down the San Antone
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
E7
Well, my momma she done told me, Poppa done told me, too
E7
"Son, that gal you foolin' with she ain't no good for you"
A7
But that's all right, that's all right
B7 E7
That's all right now, momma, anyway that you do
[Verse 5]
E7
Well, I stand at my window, I hang my head and cry
E7
I hate to lose that woman, hate to say good-bye
A7
But that's all right, that's all right
B7 E7
That's all right now, momma, anyway that you do
[Verse 6]
E7
Well, baby, one of these mornings and, lord, it won't be long
E7
You're gonna look for me, baby and daddy will be gone
A7
But that's all right, that's all right
B7 E7
That's all right now, momma, anyway that you do
