Like the 309 Johnny Cash
(Spoken)
It [A]should be a while before I see dark to death
So it would sure be nice if I could get my breath
Well im not the crying nor the whining kind
Till I hear the whistle of the 309,
(Sung)
Of the 30[D]9, of the 30[A]9
Put me and my box on the [E]30[A]9
[A]Take me to the depot
Put me to bed
Blow an electric fan on my [E]knarly old [A]head
[A]Everybody take a look, see im doing fine
Then load my box on the [E]30[A]9
On the 30[D]9, on the 30[A]9
Put me and my box on the [E]30[A]9
[A]Hey sweet baby kiss me hard
Draw my bath water [E]Sweep my [A]yard
[A]Give a drink of my wine to my Jersey cow
I wouldn''t give a hootin'' hell for m[E]y journe[A]y now
On the 30[D]9, On the 30[A]9
[A]I hear the sound of a railroad train
The whistle blows and Im [E]gone [A]again
[A]It will take me higher than a Georgia pine
Stand back children its a [E]30[A]9
It''s a 3[D]09, It''s a [A]309
Put me and my box on a [E]30[A]9
[A]A chicken in the pot, A turkey in the corn
I haven''t felt this good since[E] jubalee[A] morn''
[A]Talk about luck, well I got mine
Asthma comin'' down like the[E] 3[A]09
[A]Write me a letter, sing me a song
Tell me all about it, what [E]I did [A]wrong
[A]Meanwhile I will be doing fine
Then load my box on the [E]30[A]9
On the 30[D]9, On the 30[A]9
Gonna get outta here on the [E]30[A]9
