500 Miles Full Lyrics

If you miss 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 a way from home. Away from home, away from home, Away from home, away from home, 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 miss 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.
