Five 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 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 way
 This way, this way, this way, this way
 Lord I can't go back home this 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
