500 Miles
(1974)
(1974)
If you missed the train I'm on,
You will know that I am 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 five hundred miles away from home.
500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home.
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
Lord I can't go back home this a way
This a way, this a way, this a way, this a way,
Lord I can't go back home this a way.
If you missed the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
You will know that I am 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 five hundred miles away from home.
500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home.
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
Lord I can't go back home this a way
This a way, this a way, this a way, this a way,
Lord I can't go back home this a way.
If you missed the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
