Jackie DeShannon - 500 Miles Lyrics

If you miss the train I'm on
You'll know I have gone
You can hear the whistle blow a 100 miles
A 100 miles, a 100 miles
A 100 miles, a 100 miles
You can hear the whistle blow a 100 miles

Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two
Oh Lord I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Good God, I'm 500 miles from my home
500 miles, 500 miles 500 miles, 500 miles
I'm 500 miles, oh, from my home

Not a shirt on my back
I ain't got a penny to my name
Lord, I can't go home this a-way
Oh, this a-away, this a-way
This a-way, this a-way
Lord, don't make me go home this way

So, if you miss the train I'm on
You'll know that I have gone
You will hear the whistle blow a 100 miles
