about

traditional arr. Andru Bemis

lyrics

If you miss the train I'm on
you will know that I have 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
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
I can't go back home this way
this way, this way
this way, this way
Lord I can’t go home this way
