[Lyrics]
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, oh lord I'm four,
Lord I'm 500 miles from my home.
500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles
Lord I'm five hundred 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
