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
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
Lord I'm five hundred miles
Away from home (away from home)

Away from home
Away from home
Away from home
Away from home
Lord I'm Five hundred miles away from home
(Five hundred miles, five hundred miles, five hundred miles)

Not a shirt
On my back
Not a penny to my name
Lord I can't go back home
This a-way (this a-way)

This a-way
This a-way
This a-way
Yeah this a-way (this a-way)
Lord I can't go back 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 (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
