If you miss the train i'm on

Then you know that i'll be gone

You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

A hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles

You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles





Lord i'm one, lord i'm two, lord i'm three, lord i'm four

Lord i'm 500 miles away from home

500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles,

Lord i'm 500 miles away from home





Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name

Lord i can't go-a-home this-a-way

This-a-way, this-a-way, this-a-way, this-a-way,

Lord i can't go-a-home this-a-way
