"'''Folsom Prison Blues'''" er en sang skrevet i 1953<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.folsomcasharttrail.com/blog/articles/postid/10/the-real-story-behind-johnny-cash-folsom-prison-blues |title=The Real Story Behind Johnny Cash & Folsom Prison Blues |publisher=folsomcasharttrail.com |access-date=2017-06-15 |archive-date=22. juni 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190622054544/https://folsomcasharttrail.com/blog/articles/postid/10/the-real-story-behind-johnny-cash-folsom-prison-blues |url-status=live }}</ref> og den blev indspillet første gang i 1955 af den amerikansk [[singer-songwriter]] [[Johnny Cash]]. Sangen kombinerer elementer fra to populære [[folkemusik]]stilarter; togsangen og fængselssangen, som Cash fortsatte med i resten af sin karriere. Det var en af Cash' [[signatursang]]e. Det var det elvte nummer på hans [[debutalbum]] ''[[With His Hot and Blue Guitar]]'' og den blev også inkluderet på ''[[All Aboard the Blue Train]]''. En liveversion, der blev indspillet blandt de indsatte på [[Folsom State Prison]] blev nummer 1 på den amerikanske countryhitliste i 1968. I juni 2014 rangerede bladet ''[[Rolling Stone (magazine)|Rolling Stone]]'' sangen som nummer 51 på listen over de 100 største countrysange nogensinde.<ref>{{cite web | title=100 Greatest Country Songs of All Time | url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/pictures/100-greatest-country-songs-of-all-time-20140601/51-johnny-cash-folsom-prison-blues-1955-0048121 | work=Rolling Stone | access-date=15. januar 2018 | archive-date=22. november 2017 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171122020339/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/pictures/100-greatest-country-songs-of-all-time-20140601/51-johnny-cash-folsom-prison-blues-1955-0048121 |url-status=live }}</ref>
