American Songs - Five Hundred Miles lyrics

rate me

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.
