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 bow

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 away

This away this away

this away this away

Lord I can't go back home this away

If you miss the train I'm on

You will know that I am gone

You can hear the whistle blow

a hundred miles
