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 away from home

Away from home, away from home

Away from home, away from home

Lord, 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 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...
