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
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 a hundred miles
away from home
...Away from home
Lord Im five a hundred miles
away from home
Not a shirt on my back
Not a penny on my name
Lord I can't go back home
this a way
...This a way
Lord I can't ho back home
this a way
