Johnny Cash's Jurisdiction Snafu?

This Is just something I have been thinking about the last couple of days, Don't even know why it matters but it keeps going through my head. In Johnny Cash's song "Folsom Prison Blues" The Lyrics state that he "Shot A Man In Reno" Which is in the state of "Nevada" yet he is doing time in "Folsom prison" which is in the state of "California" All the while hearing the whistle of a train that is headed on"On down to San Antonio" which is in the state of "Texas". Doesn't really matter but am I the only one who has noticed this? Just wonderiong out loud.

LOL! Thanks for the best laugh of the month. You're right, of course, the lyrics don't make sense but I never really thought of it before. You should've been a lawyer and spring him from the Folsom prison to do his time in Nevada because he's crazy to keep hearing the Sant Antonio bound train!
