If you miss this 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.
Yes I m one, yes I m two, yes I m three, yes I m four,
Yes I m 500 miles away from home.
Away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home
Yes, I m 500 miles away from 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.
So if you miss this 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.
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
