Five Hundred Miles lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you missed the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

[Chorus]
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Away from home, away from home
Away from home, away from home
Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home

[Verse 3]
Not a shirt on my back
Not a penny to my name
Lord, I can't go back home this-a way

[Chorus]
This-a way, this-a way
This-a way, this-a way
Lord, I can't go back home this this-a way
[Verse 4]
If you missed the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

[Chorus]
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
