Lonesome Whistle Lyrics - Little Feat

I was ridin' No. 9 

Heading south from Carolina 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

I've got in trouble, I had to roam 

Left my girl and I left my home 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

Just a kid actin' smart 

I went and broke my darlin' heart 

I guess, I was 

I was too young, too young to know

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

They took me off the Georgia Main 

Locked me to a ball and chain 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

All alone I bear the shame 

I'm a number not a name 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

I'll be locked here in this cell 

Till my body's just a shell 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

Just a kid actin' smart 

I went and broke my darlin' heart 

I guess, I was 

I was too young, too young to know 

Photos 

I'll never see that girl of mine 

I'm in Georgia, doin' time 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

I heard that lonesome whistle blow 

Heard that lonesome whistle blow
