Lyrics
500 Hundred Miles
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 forom my home
500 miles, 500 hundred miles, 500 hungre miles, 500 hundred miles
Lord I'm 500 hundred miles from my home.
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
Lord I can't go on home this away
This away, this away, this away, this away
Lord I can't go a-home this away.
If you miss the train I'm on you will know that I am gone
you can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
