If you miss the train I'm on you will know that I am gone
You will hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

A hundred miles a hundred miles a hundred miles a hundred miles
You will 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

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

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

Away from home Away from home
Away from home Away from home
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home
