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 500 miles from my home 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles Lord, I’m 500 miles from my home
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name Lord, I can’t go a-home this a-way This a-away, this a-way, this a-way, this a-way Lord, I can’t go a-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
