(As recorded by Glen Campbell)

(From the album 'A Satisfied Mind')

If you miss the train I'm on

You will know that I am gone

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

I'm 500 miles away from home

Not a shirt on my back

Not a penny to my name

Lord I can't go back this a'way

This a'way, this a'way, this a'way, this a'way

Lord I can't go back this a'way

Well, I'm walking these ties,

With tears in my eyes

Trying to read a letter from my home

From my home, from my home, from my home, from my home

Trying to read a letter from my home

If this train's running right

I'll be home by Saturday night

I'm 500 miles away from home

Away from home, away from home, away from home. away from home

I'm 500 miles away from home
